Welcome to my Blog!!

Hey everyone! I hope you enjoy reading what I have to say on here. Here's my "Where I'm From" poem for you all to read:

"Where I'm From"

I'm from a needle in space
One too many rainy days
From plum tree perches
And community churches

I'm from blessing upon blessing
From love and from sacrifice

I'm from dirt clods and sticks
Wars with three Bakers
From ants on an oak tree
From poppies and sage

I'm from Goleta the Goodland
Its history too
A sister from Korea
With a cool tattoo

I'm from struggles in school
Too many distractions
From saving grace
And a humble reaction

I'm from One who loves me deeply
Even when I fail
I'm from things undiscovered
A never ending trail

  1. Nice rhyme scheme! I wish I was that good at poetry. I've been to Seattle a few times, in fact I have many friends who moved up there after college or went to do grad school at SPU. I got the impression that it's a neat city with an especially unique culture. Are you a coffee connoisseur?
