Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

We gain more, learn,
grow, it seems,
through the grist of adversity
the churning stomach,
the flushed cheeks,
wet furrowed brow
taking in the information
the struggle
reaching closure, fruition
learning, by the doing
the action against the tide
standing strong as we must
not bowing under the weight
to come out
on the other side
diploma in hand
