In my class, we wrote I am from poems today. This is mine-
I am from
unicorns guarding me in my sleep
dancing with pandas and Raggedy Ann
flying to the moon in a cedar tree rocket ship
I am from
red sand cracked like a broken mirror
roads and hills covered in snow
schools with doors that opened to the outdoors
I am from
riding the fire truck down main street
sock basketball on laundry day
long drives to Idaho every summer
I am from
blue and white stadium seats
red and white running uniforms
purple and white streamers in my window
I am from
believing it would all work out
respecting teachers and officers
helping neighbors and anyone who called
I am from
small towns where everyone knew me
classrooms where I was expected to succeed
a home where I am very loved
