To Band

To band,
When I walked into my first practice,
I did not realize how much you would mean to me.
You provided me with a loving and caring environment,
A place where I felt like I belonged,
A second family and home,
Happiness,














And an amazing experience.
You taught me discipline and self-confidence,
Trust and responsibility,
Time management and team work,
How to be a friend,
How to endure long bus rides,
How to stay up late,
And get up early,
What it means to have people who care,
And what it means to care for others.
You are my life,
I look forward to your practices every day.
I do not know what I would do without you.
Thank you for all you have done for me.
