Where I'm From

I am from the cool breeze

From the thick branches and the dark sky
I am from the wooden roof and the white carpet

(Scratchy yet comfortable)
I am from the wild weeds and the dirty pond

(Like a small jungle of my own)
I am from the old car shows and the big Christmas’s
I am from emotion and laughter

From good night sleep tight don’t let the bed bugs bite
I am from love and spirituality
I am from Poland, Croatia, Ireland and Lithuania

From spaghetti and mashed potatoes
From the feisty sibling who taught me everything
From Mocha’s house with the big pianos

I am from the pictures and the scattered bookshelves
From the posters and the baseballs
From the moving truck that carries all the memories away
