David, Where Are You From?

I’m from listening to Paul Simon at night and playing my guitar in bed till I fall asleep.

I’m from waking up early and stumbling out of bed to the car for early morning car rides to snowboarding day trips.

 

I’m from evening sunset longboard cruises and getting home in time for a bowl of cereal before bed.

I’m from the last night of vacation in the outer banks with my cousins and trying to pull an all nighter in the hot tub.

 

I’m from epic water gun fights in cape cod with my cousins and us trying to sneak up on my dad to shoot him in the ear.

 

I’m that Guitar playing, snowboard-tripping, sunset-going, vacation-loving, water gun-fighting boy.

 

That’s where I’m from.

  1. David,
    I really liked your poem. I liked how you were detailed about who you like to listen to Paul Simon. I also like how you mentioned that you pulled an all nighter with your cousins.
