Where I'm From by S.S.

This just came home from school:

Where I'm From

I'm from the speeding country
I'm from the land of mountains with snow as fluffy as whipped cream.
I'm from the land of skiing,
I'm from
Switzerland.

I'm from playing tennis and swimming in lakes
from June to July in the warm summer days.
I'm from traveling from continent to continent to visit my many
other friends.
I'm from a soccer and skiing family,
I'm from getting on a plane to move to the U.S.,
and making new friends and losing others.

I'm from iPods and DVD's, to plasma TV's.
I'm from a working Dad right next door, and mountain biking
with my friends
I'm from the most amazing grandparents, uncles and aunts
who have pulled me through some of the hardest moments.
I'm from cousins that moved just like me,
and skiiing with them is just as fun as anything else.
I'm getting lost in cities like New York City,
and skiing in the alps
and then tumbling off the trail into the woods.
I'm from a very proper grandmother and divorced grandparents.
I'm from going to soccer and then to lacrosse in the same day,
and being with my friends in Synergy practice,
and always finishing practicce with, SFC!

I'm from a new technical world with new friends
and wonderful things to come and go.
