    What being a Blackbelt means to me By MaKayla M. Aldrich

    A year and a half ago

    I became a member of family of TaeKwando

    To make myself strong,against my foes

    So now I have finally reached my goal.

    Building my self esteem and my confidence

    Look real hard,you will see the evidence

    My journey has been hard and long

    But now,I finally feel like I belong.

    TaeKwando,ways of the hand and feet

    Alot of new friends I did meet

    Walk through the doors,you bow and greet

    Now I can walk with confidence down the street.

    Cresent kicks and backhand strikes

    Learning all our forms and one steps to earn our stripes

    Front stances,back stances,deep knee balance

    Lord knows I cannot dance

    From the belt of white,to the belt of black

    I keep my forms in sight,so none,will I lack

    The belt is just a belt,its the one who wears it,will make it black

    As I break my boards with a smack.
