I am
I am from the house of my great grandparents.
From a house with walls that could tell so many stories.
I am from the sound of a camera clicking,
To the pictures on the wall,
I am from everyone being equal.
From three sisters trying to be best of all,
I am from trying to break out of my shell to see what’s true.
I am from the working ways,
The healing hands,
The wishing waters,
I am from the dirt and pain,
From taking your time,
I am from outside of the box,
From other ways of creating,
I am from the learning mind,
I am from working first with organization,
And doing it later in immense clutter,
From razor shape focus,
To every distraction,
I am from a love and nurturing.
