where i'm from
I am from a small family.
I’m from divorce and remarriage.
I’m from dinner crickets and “remurt”.
I’m from “You are my sunshine” and “Butterfly kisses”.
I’m from have magical dreams and if you try your best, that’s all that matters.
I’m from sand castles and boardwalks.
I’m from homemade peanut butter cookies and cheesy scrambled eggs.
I’m from barbies and hot wheels.
I’m from insecurities and shyness.
I’m from big backyards and pecan trees.
I’m from “A Christmas Story” and “Pirates of the Caribbean”.
I’m from broken promises and false hope.
I’m from prayers and the love of God.
I’m from optimism and big bear hugs.
I’m from The Game of Life and Chinese Checkers.
I’m from a glass ornaments and chopping down a tree.
I’m from diversity and nondenominational.
I’m from a drying rack and envelopes.
And I keep all of this in my heart.
