Where I’m
From
I am from berry picking
baskets and Ford trucks,
From John Deere tractors
and dogs running free.
I am from backwoods, deep
snow, and warm sunrises coming over the mountain.
I am from the rustic barn
fences and cows in the fields.
I am from inspiring sisters, summer
camping trips, and fishing with dad
From “Wait until your
father gets home!” and “What are you girls doing?”
I am from Christian faith where
I was taught anything is possible if you follow the Lord, our God.
I am from the home of the
Blackwater Falls that reminded me to be quiet and just listen,
And Irish heritage that
gave me my red hair and temper.
From Moores and McDowells, hard
workers yet even softer hearts.
From the scary baby doll
stories told by cousins, women’s weekends where we can act silly, and the beach
vacations that always have mishaps.
I am from winding roads
that always lead me back home, and a great family, that no matter where I go in
life, they will always be there for me.
