Where I'm From

February 28, 2008

I’m from a mother’s womb

That wasn’t supposed to be
I’m from Lisa and Gino

But, mostly Lisa and Robert
I’m from many dresses

Specifically one


Sparkled more every time it was worn
I’m from dogs, cats, and little rodents

All easily annoyed by me
I’m from the BIG news

“It’s girl!” Three times

And “It’s a boy!” just once
I’m from French fries from Mcdonalds

Taste so good!


All over the car seat
I’m from ice cream at 3 o’clock in the morning

And coffee at 6


Always decaf
I’m from a family that was great

They knew it


Wouldn’t trade them for the world
I’m from fighting and making up

Forgive and forget


Most of all
I’m from growing up and trying

Trying my best just to be ME!
