Where Treasure Is From.

20011606_1 — 2024-10-10 14:14:21 UTC

I am from Playing dolls,
from barbies and The park.
I am from coming home watching movies with my mom .
(in the fall , in my moms bed snuggled up close ,
Eating snacks and watching scary movies .)
I am from the big tree in my front yard
the Dutch elm
The dolls I remember
as if they were my own.

I'm from Pound cake and Praise,
from Brittany and Jason.
I'm from the smart alecs
and the pass-it-ons,
from love! and hate!
I'm from He restoreth my soul
with a brown teddy bear
and four verses I can say myself.

I'm from Balisa and Joe’s Branch,
fried oreos and pound cake.
From the memories at my grandmother's house
to the fun times we share,
the dogs the kids love to pet.

My photo album was on a table
spilling old pictures,
a sift of memories & lost faces
to reminisce & remember.
I am from those moments--
Lost before i have been born --
Moments that I cherish most from my family fun .
