I Am From

I am from tank tops, from 7-up drank through licorice straws.
I am from the hilltop's valleys in the forgotten portion of the rustic land.
I am from the sagebrush, the snowbanks.
I am from vagabond lifestyle, never ending conversations and blue eyes.
I am from the technological obsessions and the one-more-just-in-case, and the leap-before-you-think.
From happily ever after, playing outside, cruising Main St., best friends forever.
I am from hallelujah Sunday's that last until Monday with dinner and song and prayer at the table.
I'm from the ranch, pot roast and potatoes and greens from the garden.
From the riverboat gamblers, the Hudson dam workers, the teachers, the carpenters, the farmers, the ranchers, the inventors and the dreamers.
I am from the heartland, the coastal waters, the shores abroad and the mountains above.
