I am from hot apple cider in the morning,
From my tree swing and from
Bright sunny days,
I am from my favorite couch
Cozy and worn with time,
I am from putting the chickens in at night
And from feeding the ponies in winter,
I am from Great Island
And sailing
And capsizing,
I am from sunrise fishing
And from my desk and my school
From math class and Latin class,
I am from the Lillis advisory
And from the tennis court
And the science lab,
I am from snowstorms and blackouts
From nightmares and fear
And daydreams and small joys,
I am from determination and hope
And love and friendship
And I am from my family
And I am from myself.
