I am from sunshine,
From cold water and rocks.
I am from the loud truck sounds, loud but very significant.
I am from the top of the mountains, where fruits shine bright.
I am from celebrating New Year with a broken family.
I am from one who is always forgiving but never being forgiven.
I am from believing that people change and deserve second chances.
I am from love.
I am from honesty.
I am from loyalty.
I am from a broken home but caring and supportive parents.
I am from Manathana with a Dominican family.
Hi, I liked how you used very descriptive words throughout your poem, it gave me the ability to visualize while reading I also enjoyed the qualities you mentioned they overall gave a very peaceful tone to the poem.
Hello Trinasia, thank you for taking your time to read over my poem and also leaving me a comment.
Hi Alkasti, I really enjoyed how you structured your poem. Starting off very bright and loud with things like sunshine, cold water, and loud sounds, then the poem gets a bit darker toward the end. I liked the picture you created in the beginning making it feel like waking up on a mountain.
Hello Matthew, thank you for your response and your observations.
Hi Alkasti, this poem really motivated me and reading this made me want to go out there and teach people the meaning of life and how to succeed. This poem is a vibe with some loft music and keep it up. I’m glad I came across to your poem.
