Who I am from

I am from...

I am from the old rocking chair in my living room

From the vast porcelain vases and the beautiful drapes of curtain

Hanging from the ceiling 

I am from the small but large at heart apartment 

Known for its simple beauty and elegance 

I am from the orchids that my mother grows

The cherry orchard 

Whose long limbs I remember 

As if they were my own

I'm from the hard working and the ones who fight for justice 

From my father and mother 

I am from the high mountain lands and rich soil

And from the urban city 

I am from the honest and respectful

And the ones who share

I am from the patience, that all good things come to those who wait

I am from Costa Rica with el flan and arroz con leche

From the people who come to work hard and want a better life

I am from all those who inspire
