"I Am From You Are My Sunshine"
I am from microwaves
and TV trays,
I am from pizza and movies
on Friday nights,
I am from a single parent
meaning Mommy and Me nights.
I am from Dayton, Ohio
to Manning, SC,
I am from city lights
to star lights.
I am from violent neighborhoods
to calm lake waters.
I am from Mommy working
3-4 jobs at a time,
I am from a loving mother
who provides for me,
I am from struggling times
yet support from every angle,
I am from You Are My Sunshine
and you still are.
You Are My Sunshine -- Maria Chiara Arconte
