Poetry: Ashraf AboArafe
In cap and gown you stand so bright,
A rising star in morning light.
Your future opens, wide and true—
And all the world walks close to you.
Beside you, love becomes a name,
A father’s heart, a steady flame.
Through every step, in all you do,
My pride begins and ends with you.
Today you shine, my gentle grace,
A bloom of joy, a warm embrace.
And in your smile, I clearly see:
The finest part of life… is we.
With all my love,
Your father… Dr. Abdelsalam Eldiefar
