Where I’m From
I am from…
Buckeye trees and cardinals in the countryside
Where is life is pleasant and peaceful
I am from cows and Salt Water Taffy
Always getting a cavity from eating too many sweets
I am from painful memories
Leaving my friends and family
Half-way around the world
I am from airplanes and moving trucks.
Going from one place to another
I am from the place where a river is near the house
And trees are everywhere
I am from the place that changed my life
Where the language was so different
The city that was so busy, moving so fast
I am from...the heart of the city
