Where I'm From (inspired be George Ella Lyon)

I am from backyards,
swing sets and slides.
I am from a small backyard pool
(broken many times)
I am from VHS tapes,
from old Nintendo classics.

I am from toast
with peanut butter on Sunday morning,
from Sesame Street
and Spongebob.
I am from quietness,
and good manners past down.

I'm from almost never sleeping in my bed
(almost always I my game room)
I'm from having two cats,
from making cheesy,
stupid jokes.

I'm from the bliss of
knowing nothing.
I'm from a good childhood.
I'm from great memories
that I wish I could go back to.
That is where I'm from.
