Cap and Gown

Screenshot
Upon Brittany's lap, brave Griffin leaped,  
With licks and love, a promise to keep.
Through doors of learning, side by side,
They ventured forth, with pride as their guide.

A wheelchair's challenge, met with grace,
Griffin's service found its place.
In hallways long and classrooms wide,
He fetched and carried, by her side.

Complex pain, a shadow looming,
In darker days, despair blooming.
Yet, Griffin's warmth drove clouds away,
Made brighter nights, and sunnier days.

At Clarkson's gates, they both did strive,
With occupational goals, they'd thrive.
A degree pursued, not just for one,
But shared in spirit, work well done.

The cap and gown awaited there,
For both their heads, a pair so rare.
The university saw it clear—
To honor Griffin, as peer to peer.

So parchment given, with pride and cheer,
For a loyal dog, who held so dear
A heart so true, and a cause so right—
Griffin, a graduate, shining bright.
