~Where I’m From~
I am from the old sandbox in my backyard My dads old fishin’ boat I am from my old red wagon which I rolled 2 summers in a row on the same old Cherry Hill From everyday Mac and Cheese for lunch I am from my cat tiger that I found and hid in the shed I am from the mullet hair cuts my mom gave to me And early mornings watching superman at the babysitters I am from my grandma’s candy she brought for me at every visit The chasing the boys at every recess But never really wanting to catch them From Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and 101 Dalmatians I am from the dance practices and recitals when I was young From the sun-bleached, green hair from memorial pool From the snotty neighbor girl next door I am from the roller-skating rink music blasting loud From the gossip and rumors some true and some not From T.G.I.F. and staying up as late as I can I am from the late nights sneaking out under the stars From the all night phone calls till 3 a.m. I am from the death of my 2 grandparents I am from fun-filled nights spent at the Hardington race tracks And driving my go-cart with Jena in the summer
