Flash Fiction Friday 55 - "Hope"

This 55 is dedicated to my students that will graduate tonight! I'm very proud of them all...
They walked across the stage beaming
It took 14 months to get here, but was well
worth the struggle.

Every week night, sitting in the class, backs stiff, eyes dozing and
minds wandering...But certain words snapped them back to attention.

Here's to their better future...
Cash in their pockets...respect.
They finally made it!!

If you have your own celebratory 55 then go and check in with the G-Man at Mr. Know-It-All and have your own celebration!
