Peter DelNero - Kaela McWherter

Peter DelNero

After four years of
Being buried by books
And all that accompanied
Being a high school student,
His day had finally come.
He was someone that everyone in the school knew of
Regardless of if they had actually met him or not.
He began his ten-second walk to receive
His much-earned diploma;
His entire face twinkling,
Literally,
As his graduation cap was equipped
With small Christmas lights glowing brightly
As he bouncily crossed the stage
(Which overlooked more than four hundred graduates
And an arena full of people watching)
And proceeded to hug everyone on that platform:
Despite whether or not he knew them
Or vice versa.
The weight was lifted for a moment,
As he walked down the stairs and returned to his seat,
As he completed one goal
And is immediately surrounded by many more
As college and the future moved closer to his present.
