I Am From
I am from the city streets of Maryland
to the backwoods of brownfield
from cat toys and cats
to lacrosse gear and computers
Im from the cold Saco river flowing like the wind
and massive lakes to hoses and rakes
I'm from my moms chili and winter nights
the wind howling in the moonlight
Im from pictures in my closet
to albums in my living room
from dirt bikes and four wheelers
to climbing trees and snatching leaves
Im from traveling and visiting
from family and friends
to the wide river bends
Im from school to home
from sleeping in late
and staying wide awake
Im from exploring the forest listening to the birds chorus
from snowboarding and skiing
the live trees life fleeing
to cookouts and the beach
I Am From America
