A Color Guard Prayer by Emma Ostrowski

Let me be ready when the music starts,

To forget about the sweaty palms,

The beating of my heart.

Let me nail every toss that I throw up into space,

Even though half the time, there’s a flag in my face.

Help me to recover gracefully if it should fall,

Don’t let my instructors punch any judges through the wall.

And after we’ve done that final spin, and the crowd begins to roar,

Let my family yell and scream….

This is what they’ve been paying for!

AMEN

ECG forever love you guys
