Where I am From

December 18, 2017

I am from a small 3 room house and listening to cars at night.
I am from Battle Creek and grew up listening to B.I.G.
I am from a small town and radios playing the Detroit Pistons game.
From Mom getting groceries and Dad at the bar watching basketball.
From me and my sister shooting hoops in the street.
I am from the game of basketball.
This is me.

I wrote this poem for a classroom assignment. I decided to write my poem about my life because it is very interesting.

 

I hope that people will think about the problems that they have and push through them and don't let anything hold you back from strivng to be great.
