I AM FROM



                I AM FROM

I am from a flower basket hanging from the porch   
From an old golden dog and a red green patched bunny
I am from a purple colored house
And a wooden bench hanging from my porch
I am from a pink, red, and orange rose garden
Whose nails stretch out to grab you
I am from a train that could and a wool flowery baby blanket
From Dee Schumacher and Ray Schumacher
And from my dad pulling my sister and me on a blanket around the house and kayaking down at the river
And from me and my neighbor playing kitchen
I am from trips to many places
From apples and pork and vegetarian salads
From a caring mom who stayed home with her children
And from a dad getting property and building apartments and houses
Hiding in the small white cupboards
I am from the moments when the flower basket is hanging from the porch.
