Where I'm From

I was from a cheerful family of 6

    from a packed house--three sisters screaming and giggling
    from trips up north; fishing after eating Grandpa’s cheeseburgers
    and from Mom saying “you are my sunshine” and “it is what it is”


I am from the 2,000 students at Arrowhead High School
    from another face in the garbled halls
    from losing myself…finding myself
    and from the appreciation of music--concert overload 


I will be from travels to other countries and experience of the world 
    from service projects--repairing for those who can’t help         themselves
    from an icelandic adventure, hiking mountainous peaks with my best friend
    and from Asheville, North Carolina… a student… an employee


But, in the end, I will always be from The Taubner 6
    a strong family bond
          caring 
          journeying
          teaching
