Carpe Diem!


I am from tiger posters
from computers and mandolins
I am from rainy days whose lullaby put me to rest
And double dutch games
I am from Redwood tree's
whose branches embraced the sky
I am from paper mache masks and walking sticks
From Lamontagne and Peters
I am from blonde hair and superior intelligence
And from procrastination
From easily tempered
I am from purple rooms
I am from Emery Lamontagne and Duane Stone
From green enchiladas and tiramisu
From serving the country
And from cancer survivors
Baby dolls and strollers


I am from those moment's of paper mache masks and perfect rainy days

From mandolins and computers



THIS IS WHERE I'M FROM!

this was an assignment given to me by one of my teachers and it really helped me express who i am as a person without feeling like i was sharing my darkest secrets with my whole class.
