I am from diversity
By Alecia Itembo | From : Angola | School : Everglades High SchoolI am from many things
I am from ice cube trays
From hot tea and fresh orange juice
I am from different colored walls in every room
Funny, Loving, and Appreciating every moment
I am from the porcelain rose
From the bright pink colored rose
I am from opening presents on Christmas night rather than Christmas day
I am from dark brown hair
I am from Francisco and Mireya
I am from the always helping others and really expressing our feelings
From “always be thankful for what you have”
and “always work hard for what you want”
I’m from a christian family
I’m from Angola
From a Portuguese/European and African blood
I’m from Rice pudding and Chocolate cake
From my mom passing away due to cancer
And from my cousin being kidnapped for about a week
Near the TV, there’s picture books and framed pictures of special events to be remembered
I am from the moments in these items
Always being able to relive these happy memories
I am from…
