stupid english assignment

I am from endless books,

Acoustic guitars,

And a full pantry.

 

I am from a beautiful flower garden,

Circling the yard with an array of intermixing colors.

I am from dog toys and tiki torches,
I am from grass and pavement.

 

I am from Franklin School,

I am from pizza market,

The sweet slumber of West Newton at night.

 

I am from Uncle Chris,

I am from Road Island with the Hydes.

I am from Galen, talking to me every year.

 

I am from “Get to bed at a reasonable hour tonight.”
I am from “I’m not in the mood for this right now!”
from “I love you, goodnight sweetie.”

I am from huge thanksgiving turkeys,
from tiramisu and mashed potatoes,

From food that makes my mouth water

Every time I think about it.

I am from under my bed,
I am from in my closet,

I am from my computer and from my kitchen drawers,

Hiding little pieces of paper

With little secrets

And little emotions.
