Where I’m From
Where I’m From
I am from sunny, wet days.
A bright wood house
clear water and s l o w yet calm boat rides.
I am from where the grass grows tall
but the snow gets taller.
I am from an empty nest —
all the rooms grow colder — except for mine
I was from a banging house!
People dashing in and out
I was from a family always home
Fired up grills and movie night thrills
Sometimes…
I wish I was in another part of the world.
I wish I was from whistling waves
palm trees blowing in the wind
I
wish I
was from
mountains
Where the Aspen smells like home.
But i am from the dells.
Land of 15,000 lakes!
The Cheese Heads and the Jump Around Badgers.
I am from sunny, wet days
A bright wood house
clear water and s l o w yet calm boat rides
I am from a friend filled place.
Memorable moments
like walks with the dogs
bike rides with best friends
and of course lake days.
I'm as joyous as can be
because where I'm from, I love.
