“Your Self in You, Again” – Colby College Commencement Ceremony

by | Jun 4, 2021 | Uncategorized

“…You as the will of waves that will keep breaking against injustice. You as the rainbows that / will keep bending light until we see everyone’s colors shine together…”

It was a great honor to “see” the class of 2021 at Colby College for the 200th commencement ceremony and to return this honor by honoring their incredible milestone with an original poem I wrote for the occasion, “Your Self in You, Again.” (Excerpted above.)

To see each other is to enter into a dialog, an affirmation of each other’s lives, an invitation to participate in each other’s reality. Congratulations and Felicidades Colby Graduates – all Graduates! We see you; I see you; We see each other.
