• I am from the many parts of the world
    I am from Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Italy and many other places unknown
    Reincarnated, who knows how many times?
    Currently from my mother's belly in the many weathers of Eugene Oregon

    I am from the imagination of books
    Creativity, songs and dreams
    Listening closely as it tells a message
    Something I can relate to

    I am from back in the day, working away
    A slave who smells the fear and courage in the air
    Tasting bittersweet triumph through tears of those lost
    When we were set free

    I am from the love and care of family
    laughing friends
    funny pets
    And most of all a sunny set

    I am from a dark past
    Living fast
    Losing last
    Hoping for a better life next

    I am from the soft petals of flowers
    The sounds of singing birds
    The smell of fresh air surrounding me
    Living in pure beauty

    I am from the sights of war
    Losing friends
    Death...all around
    An eerie sort of sense in the air

    I am from the smells of thanksgiving turkey
    Walks, climbing and sage
    Turning blue in the cold winter snow
    Laughing and playing with the crazy cousins

    I am from all these things
    And many more yet to be remembered and many yet to pass
    Reincarnated who knows how many times?
    I am from my past future and present
