Where I’m From
I am from skiing in Lost Valley, and riding unicycles at WOW camp

I am from the two story, tan house, looking at the bright stars with my cousins
From gazing for Rudolf on Christmas Eve with my family, and being cared about by mom and dad

I am from watching movies with my mom and dad curled up on the couch, and cruising down Fox Hole
From “No monsters” and “Santa is real”
I’m from Maine, juicy turkey , and creamy whoopee pies that make a mess
I am from the photo album where all my family pictures are kept safe
Very interesting, you sound just like a professional poet. I'm beginning to think you like to wright about ice cream a lot, I see it in many of your stories. I think that is perfectly fine, every artist/author have some sort of signature in their work.
ReplyDeleteI Love the sentence "I am from watching movies with my mom and dad curled up on the couch". I use to do that all the time.
Any way right after that you mention "...and cruising down Fox Hole".
What is Fox Hole? and does that have anything to do with curling up with your family on the couch. Usually you want to keep things in parallel for example,
I am from cooking pasta
from american and cheddar cheese macaroni to traditional spaghetti
Notice how I kept foods with foods
But any way very well thoughts put in nice order. I really like your ending it knocks your crowed out with awwwww....

I am from egg-ng Thanksgiving day
and enjoying winter's stormy greys

I am from the casual eating in buffets

I'm from Spain
where rice and seafood is always the mood.
I am from the binders full of pictures sitting on the living room shelf.
