I am from the Island.
From red sandy beaches,
And dusty dirt roads.
I am from the excitement of old home week,
and a stroll along the boardwalk accompanied by a delicious sundae.
I am from the warmth of the woodstove on a chilly winter evening.
From snow covered rooftops,
and roads like an ice rink.
I am from the adrenaline of sledding down an icy hill,
and the relaxing sound of snow underfoot.
I am from scraped knees,
and grass stains.
From mosquito bites,
and the smell of campfire.
I am from sunburnt shoulders,
and chlorine soaked hair.
I am from fiery sunsets, magical portraits,
and aesthetic abstract.
From simple sketches,
and colorful canvases.
I am from creativity,
and hands decorated with paint.
I am from loving family,
and amazing friends.
From a comforting home cooked meal,
or a late-night adventure with friends.
I am from baking with Grandma,
and gardening with Grandpa.
I am from the island.
From breathtaking views,
and lively towns.
I am from cozy winters,
and adventurous summers.
From eye catching art.
I am surrounded by love and kindness,
excitement and beauty.
The island is where I am from
