I Am From Poem
I am from a house
I am from a paved street
Full of little children
Oldest is 4 years younger
I am from a bike
Takes me anywhere I want
In the city
If it has trouble
I take it to the nearest bus stop
Usually a MAX station
I am from the bullies,
The pass-it-ons,
And the fun teachers,
The Focus, Pipe down, and Be Quiet!
I’m from Apple products
Playing games
Fooling around
Listening to music
I am from music
Made by young girls
Most are not even in their teens,
Yet.
Mom doesn’t think that’s right
I am from social networks
To connect to my favorite shows’ actors,
And favorite singers.
I am part of F.T.N.D.
Who helped me get my life straight.
Beforehand
I didn’t care
About my family and my friends
And spent my life online
I am from relatives
Most died from cancer
I’m from trips to Green Valley
Visiting Oma in Arizona
Playing golf
And golf cart rides
I’m from trips to Ocean City
Visiting Grandma and Grandpa Beach
Playing on the beach
The hot sand touching my feet
Until I am in the salty water
And having hot fresh donuts in the morning.
I’m from trips to an old ranch
Eatons Ranch in Wolf, WY
Visiting my Uncle and cousin
Riding horses between each meal
No Wi-fi
No data service
And no cell service
Not even roaming.
