From Spalding

And Wilson

I am from the first door on your right upstairs

Filled with memories

It feels like home

I am from the strawberry garden in my backyard,

And the trees in my backyard

The green and reds of the backyard

I am from going to High School basketball games

And Football games on Friday nights 
From Chris and Nicole and Bob

I’m from the going to bed early and

Waking up early too

Look both ways.

I’m from going to church every Sunday,

And going through confirmation

I’m from LeRoy,

Chicken Noodle Casserole and Pizza.

From the trip to Disney World with my cousins

The birth of my baby cousin Jace.

I am from the friday night lights of a small town in Illinois.
