Making a Change through Education by Mr. Darius Orjuna

Reflections Magazine: 2009 Poetry Contest Third Place Winner, Darius Orjuna
with Professor Marina Rodriguez

Hard road to travel, through the path we live;

Taking a dead end job, not knowing what an education can give;

We settle for something easy, instead of going for something hard

because at the end of a challenge there’s a reward, like a game of cards;

So if you choose a road, education is right.

Which one would you rather have, a P.H.D or a dead end job for life?
