WHERE I’M FROMDustin Clark
I’m from crowded streets
with stories to tell
The walking city
with buildings to the sky
Burdened by a sheet of white
that comes knee high
Not many memories of my original place
only dreams of remembrance left in my case
I moved down 5 states to a more rural place
a place where my memories overwhelm my mind
From hot summers of eating Dairy
Queen
and bailing hay
To cold winters of sledding
and watching wood burn
from a flame
With fall of colors vibrant enough to brighten any day
to spring where the Japanese
maple bloomed all day
Once again I moved on to a new place
A place of
tar Heels and Deacons
with some Blue Devils and a wolfpack
I’m fro
m a place where the air is crisp to
breathe
an area so peaceful and
beautiful
where you can hear the rustle of the leaves
I now call this home
and have for 8 years
Although the thought of my prior home
can leave me fighting back the
tears
So here I am now, becoming who I want to be
with only the thoughts of crowded
streetsand a blooming Japanese maple
tree
