i am from a hospital that is open no more./from a green house and a brown door./ i am from playing with play-doh and baby dolls./ from go karts and dirt bikes.//

i am from L.B.I./ from ice cream and summer nights./ i am from swimming pools and goo lagoons./ from boat rides and jet skis./ i am from walks on the beach at night./ from tanning and beach football./ i am from country kettle fudge./ from toerings and clothing.//

i am from a bigbackyard and tall wood fences./ from tether ball and trampolines./ from cool summer nights and a fire pit./ i am from country music./ from Keith Urban and Lady Anyebellum.//

i am from high school./ from a freshmen and a senior brother./ i am from cheerleading./ from cheering in the fall for football and in the winter for wrestling./ i am from long hard practices at lacrosse./ from shuttles, gaunlet, and steal the bacon.//

all my memories hiding away./ inside a shoebox under my bed./ waiting for me to look at them and re-live them again.//
