I am from...
I am from my black and soft sofa downstairs where I like to hang out
from my cozy bed upstairs where I sleep and dream and my fridge where I eat and drink
I am from the modern home in which I live in
cozy and warm
I am from the roses
The purple tree in front and the tree that blossoms in the spring
whose long gone limbs I remember
as if they were my own
I’m from eating cinnabons on Christmas and decorating the Christmas tree
from Jake, Jean, and Bill
I’m from never giving up and always working hard
and from being honest
I’m from being polite and kind
and the songs that my dad used to sing to me before I went off to sleep
I’m from watching the Super Bowl with my family and friends
I’m from Connecticut and Poland and Germany
cabassi and ham
From my brother giving everyone in my family stitches, including me
on accident of course
My parents wedding pictures and our vacation pictures
In the living room
In which our memories and dreams are held and will continue to live on
