Where I Am From

I am from tall grass
From the sound of the birds
I am from waterfalls
From bears and bobcats
I am from the beaches
From the long waves that hit my feet hard
I am from mountains
From the snowy tops
Of cliffs
I am from friendship
Forever friends
I am from death
From the top of heaven
Never to be seen again
I am from books
Crazy adventures
Sad deaths
Always to be forgotten
