14. Procrastination. If you had more time, you’d be able to put it off longer. What do you put off to the last moment? Why? Tell a story about how you just barely got something done in time – or didn’t.

Where I’m From

Where I am from winter is almost a holiday for kids
Where I am from we rejoice at the thought of snow
Where I am from the Patriot’s are a religion
Where I am from nothing beats Sunday football games
Where I am from the rolling hills make me shout with joy
Where I a from I am safe and comfortable
I’m from warm hot chocolate on a winter day

Where Do the Words Come From?

Words stir
From within
Me.
What
Are they
About?
What
Do they
Mean?
They come out as
Poetry,
Sometimes it
Rhymes,
And other times,
It doesn’t.
They are parts of me,
But parts I do not
Recognize.
I will come to be
Familiar
With them.
Maybe.
But I hope the words
Never
Stop.
