5 years old mama got married to a man in green,
who like to wear a Scottish kilt,
the man in green crystal blue eyes
and a white smile,
he moves mama, my sister and me
to the Midwestern state of Missouri
summer 2005
6 years old joined by another male
a baby brother with blonde hair
and eyes like the man in green
early spring 2006
8 years old the man in green
where's the family south to the slithering state of Texas
he fights in Iraq and another sister going to the picture
summer 2008
10 years old man in green
takes us to humid South Carolina
winter 2010
three years later closer home
getting use to the spine chilling cold
and pouring rain
teen for year
asked the man in green
to adopt me
summer 2013
