Farewell

The year is almost over, and the time has come to say goodbye.

The things we feel are bittersweet, because though it’s hard, we know it’s time.

Your future expands vastly ahead of you, and we know that you’ll do great,

We just hope that you’ll remember us once you leave this loving space.

We can already feel the tears gathering, the lumps inside our throats,

You’ve watched us grow and learn through the years, always so full of hope,

We’ve looked up to you for wisdom and strength, for comfort and advice,

But now your wings are ready to soar, so take a leap and fly!
