Young Writers Camp - Oakland: Where I'm From

Where I'm From

I am from Lola

and LoLo

I am from sleeping under

Lion King blanket

and Winnie the Pooh Pillow

I am from the smell spray in the bathroom

I like to speak the language I'm from

like: Sompt Po-Thank You in tagalog

Ganda-Beautiful

LoLo-Grandpa

LoLa-Grandmother

I hear my family opening

Shutting the door

I like to look at my grandmother's orange swirls lamp

in her big

huge

living room
