I am from animals stuffed with love and magic,
From open doors and smiling faces.
I am from the creek down the street.
(filled with untold wonders,
unmarked by the trail)
I am from not one place
But many
Traveled to by car and plane
Searching for a place I call home.
I’m from loving faces of smaller mammals,
From
a crowing rooster in the morning.
I’m from a small sunny city
with
parents moving to Philly
I’m from she
needs to talk more
To details, details, details!
I’m from numerous nick names
Deprived
from book to my world connections,
Thanks
to my freshman year.
I’m from the golden coast of California,
With
recyclable everything.
From albums filled with memorable photos,
Filled
of people there’s yet to meet
Along
with long lost memories I have yet to keep.
Different places called home all in different places,
One in Nigeria, Maryland, and Philly
I am from the world,
Grown with help from love and happiness.
