Where I Am From
By: Sofia Anderson
I am from the murky waters of a lake,
That at a distance looks clear as a diamond.
I am from hot summers,
With popsicles, pools, and humidity.
I am from stubbornness,
That makes me stick to my own mind
And to have a strong opinion.
I am from backbreaking work of physical labor,
That makes me work hard with everything,
Even if I get nothing in return.
I am from hours of watching and playing sports,
That molded me into a person who has patience and grit.
I am from trophies on a wall,
That make me confident to push on.
I am from a loving couple Maria and Robert,
Who contracted me into the person I am today.
