Where I’m From by Lilia

I am from scary stories, from Ecounlimited clothes and shoes and arista cat and Aeropostale.

I am from gleaming trees and the scent of animals and pine trees.

I am from the violets and lilies, the purple and white and the smell of perfume.

I am from the 4th of July, fireworks on a cruise boat, and naming a Christmas tree.

I am from Mom, Dad, and Nikos.

I am from bowling and sailing.

I am from “Don’t be a grumpapotamus!”

I am from Bowdoin and Italy and spaghetti and meatballs.

I am from my Fragile Box.

I Am From by Sierra

I am from stuffed dogs, from Aeropostale and Hershey bars.

I am from the croaking frogs and the sound of tweeting birds at night.

I am from the ferns that spread across the woods and the tulips around the flagpole.

I am from Early Birds at Christmas and never agreeing, from Cassidy, Bryce, and Morgan.

I am from the awesome movie night and snuggling on the couch in thunder and lightning.

I am from “Stop pushing your friends in the frog pond!” and “Stop throwing snowballs on the windshield!”

I am from Maine and England. I am from spaghetti and burgers on the grill.

I am from all of the photo albums in the homemade shelf my sister and I painted.

I Am From Maine by Reece

I am from the loving of tacos, from the fresh Pert Plus shampoo and Fresh Step kitty litter.

I am from looking in the woods, counting out every lady slipper I see.

I am from the loving of roses and the loving of daisies.

I am from looking at Christmas lights on Christmas Eve and four-wheeling, from Grandpaw Minear and Meemaw, and Bartolini.

I am from camping and looking at fireworks fill up the sky with the beautiful colors, from “Eat with your mouth closed!” and “Tie your shoes.”

I am from Brunswick, Maine, from steak and chicken and dozens of pictures taken.

I Am From by Samantha

I am from Disney World and swimming like a fish.

I am from the blue house that is on the ocean water and the smell of seaweed.

I am from the apple trees, lupines, pine trees, and the red, white, and pink roses.

I am from Rummy Royal, Christian music, and blue eyes, from Tom, Melody, Alyssa, and Elijah.

I am from 10,000 Dice and the Maine Mall, from “Chew with your mouth closed!” and “If you get mad, don’t take it out on other people.”

I am from the Mid-coast and Wales, from pasta and teriyaki chicken and rice.

I am from the living room, the dining room, and my bedroom.

I am from target practicing, from four square and four-wheelers.

I am from the town of Brunswick.

I am from the sound of dirtbikes and four-wheelers.

I am from dinner every Wednesday night.

I am from blue eyes, from Troy and Jo, from Alesha, Keenan, and Nic.

I am from fires every night and playing games.

I am from “Enjoy it while you have it!” and “Just have fun!”

I am from Parkview, Brunswick, and crepes and grapes.

I am from Maine and bb guns.

I Am From by Isaac

I am from a house, from Topsham, Maine, and I love Hershey’s milk chocolate.

I am from the sea. I am from the farm as well.

I am from Christmas at Grandpa’s and lobstering with my grandpa.

I am from the Yeaton side and the Gates side.

I am from the water and from farming, from always wearing my life jacket in the boat and wearing my helmet when I ride my bike.

I am from the ocean, from pizza and fish.

I am from Maine.

I am from money and nature.

I am from the tan house, from fuzzy animals sitting on the water.

I am from the tulips that dance when you see them, from lady slippers that are pink and rare.

I am from the Cherokee tribe and World War II, from Jack and Beth, the Pelletiers too.

Balloon tossing and bottle tossing, from “Don’t eat with your mouth open!” and “Don’t slouch!”

I’m from Parkview and pizza, tacos too.

I am from Harpswell and Lisbon.
