I Am From... Poem by Elizabeth Anne

i am from washind dishes
from feeding the dogs and cleaning my room
i am from the bouncy trampoline
purple exciting
it looks like fun
i am from strawberry plants
the rose bush
whose petals i remember
as if i were feeling their velvety touch right in my hand

i ma from knopps and patchels
from bornholdts and deans
i am from go make dinner
and do your homework
from are your chores done and get me some tea
i am from school in ohio
and a report from second grade

i am from ohio and colorado
tacos and mac-n-cheese
from breaking some bones
up in my closet and under my bed in boxes
and in my mind
full of papers and pictures of my childhood times
i am proudly from the amazing details about myself
