I stand …
~ strong to my convictions
I stand …
~ firm to who I am
I stand …
~ fast to all that I believe
And I stand …
~ proud to be a dad

I stand …
~ tall beside my family
I stand …
~ straight and try to lead
I stand …
~ true unto myself as well
And I stand …
~ up for those in need

But now today I stand …

~ corrected

Though …

I never thought there’d come a day
I’d not have minded in the least
For when this is taken into account
The laws of time do cease

I especially liked the emphasis used with the bold and italics, makes the piece that much better. Some find it hard to be so confident, and stand up for all they do believe in, but it takes an even greater person to admit when one's wrong. Never let up on what you believe in. A very expressionate piece. (Pretty sure I made a word up there lol). A pleasurable read. -Cassy

"I captured a moment for me." A very magnificent moment. And then you proceded to record it in your same magnificence of presentation. Awesome. wabl KenMoore cowboy

It's good to get back into YPDC poems, and especially good to find new work from one of the best! Hang in there, what? Andrew

Also, t his feels spiritual to me as that realm would be the place where the lsws of time woeld cease. Again, a very creative style of writing and thought provoking. Well done my friend. You are a real inspiration Will/Terry
