Theme: Honor, Advocacy, Loyalty 

The high quotidian of my strong fidelity,

This affiance of my beloved dorsal fins:

I swim the vastness of the truth.

I write the voices of my advocation.

I shall open my eyes to see.

The world is never confixed:

All the vision will haunt my authority,

But my heart will glister my responsibility.

I shall open my ears to hear.

The world is never noiseless:

All the sound will wake my senses,

But my body will listen with passion and defense.

I shall open my mind to know.

The world is too intricate:

All the knowledge will knock my head,

But my soul will always wonder with candor.

This spiracle is my way of life: 

With open eyes, I wander.

With open ears, I survive.

With open mind, I prosper.
