Where I'm From
(this is a poem format we used to write yearly in high school)
-26 May 2008-
Where I'm from
is sunny cow meadows
Where I'm from
is this hidden grove of trees
Where I'm from
witches and coveners always meet
to dance and twirl
beneath the starry skies
and bask in the love of
The Goddess and the God
Where I'm from
I know only love and self-improvement
Where I'm from
positive light and negative mix
to create a simple yet divine heavenly bliss
Where I'm from
I know where I'm going
I am proud to be a afro-rican latina
survivor of many abuses
strong willed and filled with purpose
Where I'm from
is within each of us
shining brightly if we know where to look.
Where I'm from
is where the full moon glows
and pulls in crimson tides
of my womanly cycle
Where I'm from
is peace, love, happiness, anger, sadness, music
Where I'm from
is where I'm going
