Where I'M From

I am from the Holy From the bible and the small but unique church I am from the three storied building on decent street I am from the daisies but mixed slightly with cactus I'm from faith and be a leader I am from Rosetta and James I am from good hair and the coca cola shape From "Go do this, go do that" Come right back and stay prayerful I'm from, "He's blessed me Whether it's big or small" but with great meaning I'm from Florida, born in O.T. Fried chicken and homemade beef stew From the gash my sister got from playing To the sprang ankle my brother got while playing b-ball Sitting in the living room are three special albums Albums of memories and special events of course Photos of beautiful faces Some of who are barely seen Then those who are gone with the Lord I am from those moments All in which are leading me to the path of my dreams Leading me with a sense of mind to search and not be blind.
