Home

I am from family dinners, from backyard baseball
and movie nights
I am from a team of girls who become my sisters every season and share a love of soccer
I am from a football field , from blue and white
and friends cheering the Gull Lake name.
I am from Christmas lights, to home-made candy
to Sunday services to Scooter D's.
I am from the tire swing tied to the big oaks tree
swinging generations of my family back and forth, back and forth
I am from the boy I love that fills my world with laughs and smiles,
from little moments to butterflies inside.
I am from speed boats and fancy cars, from stuck up people
and gossip, from rumors and lies.
I am from hard work and motivation from the good times
and the bad that got me where I am today.
