America, I'M Here To Stay Poem by Anna Pacheco

America, I'M Here To Stay



I'm American, I'm Cuban
I'm black beans and rice
I'm hamburgers and hot dogs
I'm small town country
Cowboy boots and jeans
I'm big city downtown
Gucci and Prada
I'm southern fried chicken
I'm yankee traffic jams
I'm dollars, euros, and pesos
I'm international
I'm latina, european, asian
I'm global
I'm the new America
And I'm here to stay
