Unapologetically Me
I am from long winding trail ways covered with leaves.
I am from sunshine, I am from bees.
I am from gardens and creeks and trees.
I am from trail ways covered with leaves.
I am from mud on my rain boots and dirt in my hair.
I am from big messy tablecloths, cluttered with care.
I am from late nights with secrets to share.
I am from dried mud and dirt in my hair.
I am from the sunsets, painted high in the sky.
I am from grass stains and bright fire flies.
I am from laughter that sounds louder outside.
I am from sunsets, high in the sky.
I am from the house that welcomes mistakes.
I am from the house that gives but never takes.
I am from the house with windows open wide,
welcoming all forms of nature inside.
I am from nature, a love that never leaves.
I am from sunshine, and big brave strong trees.
I am strong too, with roots that grow deep.
I am from trail ways covered with leaves.

Everyone is from somewhere. I think it's important to know where you are from and accept and celebrate what makes you who you are.
