Poems for Graduates

The Academy of American Poets has posted a collection of poems for graduates.

On graduation day, parents and family often turn to poetry to express what they would like to pass on to the next generation—some small thought, a few lines of guidance, a gesture toward nostalgia, an elder's wisdom.

We've got our own set of graduation poems in the Poetry Tool and even more poems for graduates here, with handy previews of pertinent lines.

Someone should do a set just for newly-minted MFA students, eh?
