Where I am From
By Angelique V. at St. Rocco School
I am from Cleveland,
crazy busy streets.
I am from hot summers
and freezing cold winters.
I am from a beautiful, crazy,
independent, Puerto Rican mother
I am from a big happy family.
I am from partying
and dancing to Spanish music.
I am from my amazing,
crazy best friend Maria
who loves pink &
she loves cheerleading
I am from shopping, eating,
and partying with love ones.
I am from going to my grandma’s
every Sunday for dinner
and on Christmas.
I am from the school Christmas play.
I am from singing in front of people
even though I am a chicken.
I am from chicken noodle soup
and my mother’s steak, rice, and beans.
I am from volleyball playing
and enjoying basketball.
I am from getting told
“put yourself in my shoes” and
“you never know what you have
until It’s gone”.
Hey, that’s just me
