Caroline K.

I am from the cinnamon smell of my great aunt's

     Bundt cake on a Sunday evening.

I am from the soft wind in my Mom's garden.

I am from questions asked

     during a card game in my basement.

I am from the muddy field at my lacrosse game.

I am from the excitement on the first day of school.

I am from the chatter of my teachers

     on a Monday morning.

I am from the bouncing of my sister and me

     as we play on a sunny day.

I am from the trees whizzing by on my way home.

I am from the hugs my Mom and Dad give me.
