I Am From

I am from For King and Country,
where the music is beautiful.
I am from my parents,
where they encourage me.
I am from Reading,
where you step in other people’s shoes.
I am from the ocean,
where sushi comes from.
I am from Building 429,
where the music is amazing. 
I am from Lavender,
where it smells like dreamy sleepiness.
I am from dog spelled backwards,
is man’s best friend.
I am from America,
where you can speak and people listen.
