An Ode to Melisa Kotecki Schlote

In the midst of politics, clients and so much more
It is our fair Melisa who manages our communications store

She landed this job by writing an ode as her cover letter
In light of the competition, she was clearly much better

Like the mother bird of SE2
It is she who keeps close tabs on our crew

And though she counsels us all on how to fly
It is now she who has stepped out to reach for the sky

Ambitious, driven and ready to learn
A coveted spot in the Denver Leadership Forum she has earned

This CU program will help her hone her skills
And she'll make a difference from downtown to the foothills

With her common sense, kindness and clever wit
We think this honor is the perfect fit

For the brilliance we've known all along
Is about to grow and multiply, ten times as strong.

Congratulations, Melisa!
