Those Who Transform Me


Inspired by those who are valiant, courageous, and whole heartedly courteous,

God who gave his life so ours could persevere,

Our founding fathers who declared our independence so we could roam freely,

Abe Lincoln who fought against slavery for the liberty of every man,

Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King fighting for the equality of every man, woman, and child,

Every war that has been won due to our brave and selfless soldiers,

Those soldiers who did not make it home,

Our ever so beloved home the United States of America,

My mother who birthed me and showed me compassion,

My father who never left my side through the good times and the bad,

My sibling who kids me alot yet always makes sure im alright,

My family as a whole who continue to transform me in countless instances,

Inspired by whom i am and the person i have become due to everyone and everything i have been through.
