Where i'm from

Where I’m from

By: Whitney Miller

I’m from a hardworking mother,

A woman who did everything for her family,

Grandparents always helping us out,

From a very tight family,

From Easter Sundays at Uncle Ronnie’s and,

Christmas nights at Mimi and Papa’s.

From a father who wasn’t always there,

But tried his best.

I’m from WYB soccer games on Saturday mornings

And WYB basketball games Sunday afternoons after church.

From watching Troy and Devyn play soccer at the Vineyard Church.

I’m from watching my dad coach Varsity Girls and Boys basketball at WKHS and TWHS,

And playing for him in AAU for the past three summers.

From playing Thomas basketball for the past four years and loving it.

I’m from music.

R and B, Hip Hop, Pop, and Rock.

From music that I can relate to and music that I can dance too,

Music that makes me happy and music that makes me sad,

Music that helps me get through hard times.

I am from the hard times that have made me stronger.

From a family that has always been with me and helped me through my struggles and

Sports, that have been my outlet for years.
