Where I'm From
I’m from the games my sister and I would play.
I’m from when we moved to our new home
From playing with our dog.
I’m from the faith my parents kept in me.
I’m from the puppytoes, pizzatoes and the lovebug.
From the two houses I grew up in, and the two apartments I live in now.
I’m from a start in hockey long after most others, and catching up to the rest of the team.
I’m from the Final Smashes, the critical hits, and the Fus Ro Das.
From my dad’s work ethic that’s started to rub off.
I’m from many hours of appreciated solitude.
I’m from my laziness, my primary weakness.
From my dog’s bad health, which forces us to remain vigilant..
From passing with 1 point to spare and driving on my own.
From watching my sister go off to college, and figuring out what I want to do.
I’m from Lake Country, Swallow, and Arrowhead, from Nashotah and Four Winds.
