I come from
Taryn Smith

5th hour
Mrs. Maurice
I Come From …
I come from
A house in South West Detroit
Full with my 2 parents, and 3 sisters and my only one brother.
I come from
A house with joy and laughter.
Where there are fun water fights and wars.
I come from
A house on Fenkell and Lindsay
That has lots of neighborhood
Friends.
I come from
A block full of boys and I am the only
Girl.
I come from
I come from a block where
Playing basketball is a daily task.
I come from
A neighborhood where friends argue
Over stupid things every day.
I come from
A house with chores every day.
I come from
A brick house that had
Yellow carpet that is now
Red.
I come from
A family with lots of older people
Who taught me respect and
Confidence.
I come from
A big city in Michigan known as
The (313) or the Motor City.
I come from
A city that kills because of hatred
Or for something they
Want.
I come from
A city that acts like violence
Is a daily task.
I come from
DETROIT!!!
