Camille's I'm From Poem


I’m from
I’m from a place of a place
I’m from families of greatness
I’m from a separation of a region
I’m from happiness
I’m from sorrow
I’m from wonderful thoughts and strengths
I’m from a union of determination
I’m from history of hardness and slavery
I’m from great expectation
I’m from a will to learn, to help and improve
I’m from my mother, father, siblings, husband, daughter, and relatives
I’m from…
I’m me
Camille J. Gadsden-Locke (June 18, 2009)
