Where I am from- Andrea Reynolds

Where I'm From

By: Andrea Reynolds




I am from the mountain side,

country roads, and pretty lakeshores

I am from tom boy ways

riding motorcycles, dirtbikes, and

four-wheelers through mountains




I am from a  man of many powerful words

who always push me not to be just good but to be great.

I am from a woman who gave me the world

and always had faith in me




I am from a family of ten

five brothers and five sisters

who are all very competitve

from playing basketball to football with the boys




I am from taking roadtrips

with my dad and brothers for footballl camps.

I am from tough love and whatever you do

do it your best.




I am from summer vacations

to family reunions with all the people i love.

the trips to Georgia and North Carolina to visit

The beautiful weather and the summer atompshere

The fresh fruits and southern fried food.




I am from love, courage,and happiness
