Precious Child that College Degree


Precious child,
you were put onto this world with ever lasting love.

Like a dove,

You will spread peace and kindness to those who hate.
It is your fate
To make this world a better place

I reassure
That along your journey

You will question

If your soul is still pure
For this mission.

Precious child,
Please keep your head high
You are meant to past the clouds in the sky

Receiving that college degree
Will set your family free

Free from pain
That will no longer be gained
Free from tears
That will no longer be feared

Receiving that college degree
Will set you free

I guarantee
It is utmost essential

Trust me
You have the greatest potential.

Precious child,
Don't you see?
That college degree
Will set you free.

Free to travel
Free to soar
Free to help those in need of more

Precious child,
Please see and keep your head high
You are meant to past the clouds in the sky

Receiving that college degree
Will guarantee to set you Free.

It brings greater value.
It is utmost essential
You Will exceed your fullest potential.
