"They whispered to her,
'You Cant Withstand The Storm.'

She whispered back,
'I Am The Storm.'"

I am from where going on a bear hunt 

From candles and essential oils 

I am from cozy and crazy

I am from a willow tree 

Whose branches hid me from my brother

I am from a stuffed fox and weighted blanket

From Clan Ackinclose and Grandma Ceko

And from stubbornness and patients 

From clumsy and teachers

I am from forests and yule logs 

From perigones and Sunday gravy

From stolen pigs

And from bagpipes in Scotland and the grateful dead

I am from the moments of laughter and sadness and lot and lots of animals 

And loads of crazy
