I am from sitting on the porch

with a dark green bush on the front lawn

And a pink blossom tree sitting on the edge of the curb

In the

Cool

Calm

Refreshing

Flower scented

spring mornings

sipping hot Decaffeinated coffee

Watching the drivers in the cars sitting at the red light

Get frustrated with how long the light is staying Red

Because they are late for work

And watching the cars on the freeway Zoom by with my grandma

releasing Nitrogen Oxide and Carbon Monoxide

As they race to get to work in the spring mornings

Sitting on the porch drinking coffee

Watching people get mad at a light

People racing to work in the morning on the freeway

Is where I am from
