Where I'm From

Modeled from George Ella Lyon.


I am from Cali.
from the east side.
I am from hard times and a little pain.
from shooting and killing.
I am from a loving mother.
from a mother that makes you feel safe.
I am from a Mother who cares.
from a Mother who makes all scary things go away.


I'm from love.
from family love.
I'm from good times to.
from adventure.
I'm from friends who understand me.
from teachers who are there to help.


I'm from chicken and spaghetti
from family meals and bonding time.
I'm from love, care and understanding
from family.
