That is me

I am from lacrosse sidelines and fields, 
from alpine skis and Nike clothing.
I am from the City of Bridges
the chill, hippy city with lush green forests.
I am from big cedars and ivy.
I am from the leafy green vine that grows on every tree, fence and brick building.
I am from big family christmases and loud voices, 
from elliott to jaqua and pierson to brown 
I'm from the always late to everything and overfilling the weekends.
From "do as I say and not as I do" and "coconut oil makes you big and strong."
I'm from Portland, Oregon 
I'm from kumbucha and sparkling water and from freshly ground peanut butter
from talking to everyone you see. And my mom the photographer's overflowing boxes of pictures that capture everything from smiles to droppeed ice cream.
Thats where I am from.
