I'm from dusty old books lined neatly on the shelf,
Surrounded by visions of fairies and goblins.
I'm from night-time stories and day-time fantasies,
Each more wonderful than the last.
I'm from adventures in a tree house,
No, a castle, or a pirate ship.
From afternoon snacks of cookies and milk,
Followed by midday naps.
I'm from because I said so and hours of unwanted chores,
Each of them teaching me responsibilities in their own unique way.
I am from a great family tree whose roots stretch farther than I could ever see.
It supports who I am today, and it nourishes who I'll be tomorrow.
