[Poem] I am from

[snipe3000 678]

I Am From

 

I am from the tan house on Main St,

from chairs and couches

I am from the computer and keyboard

Homework then games

 

I am from the flowers behind our house

The tree whose long lost limbs I remember as my own,

From "Make your bed and do your homework!"

 

I am from Mom and Dad,

From reading and playing

and from family gatherings

I am from “You used to always like playing with soccer balls

and basketballs, when you were younger,”

I am from "Do not jump on the bed!"

I am from helping and sharing

and from bike rides down Leffingwell Rd

 

I am from trolling for fish,

My dad seeing a giant musky

I am from Cleveland and Philadelphia

I am from the pictures I have stored in my closet, 

keeping memories never to be lost.

I can't think of a single Main Street in Australia (off memory).

Ok, now we are going off topic. If you would like to continue narrowing it down in a PM, we can. Otherwise you have a long time to go before you can figure out where I am.

 

Please stay on topic.

Nice poem, had a fairly pleasant tempo for reading. I personally would have gone for a few more rhyme-ish things though because it makes it a little more entertaining for the reader and gains a smoother flow

I did not go with a rhyme because I had this prewritten and I am not that good with rhymes.

Yeah, I believe that it is a popular format. I wrote a poem using this format in school last year then I wrote this one afterwards.
