Stand Your Ground

Karyn Indursky 

Grow from infancy

into childhood to

develop being a teenager

before being an adult

where you learn the value

of being an individual

within the confines of conformity

to function in society

and with this mixture of maturity

you've seen the importance

of having friends, family, pets

from the blessing of being an American

allowed to be true to yourself

and let the colors of your contributions

soar into history with foot-printed

impressions of memories.
