I AM FROM

I am from the splashing waves of the Pacific
from basketballs to footballs
I am from the towering mountains
and muddy rain
I am from the gum trees
whose giant branches tower above me
I am from planes and Nerf guns
from great great grandad to poppy
and from blue eyes to a fun family
I am from the church
from bangers and mash to BBQ's
from the Australian light horesman charge
and from going to cafe's
I am from the moments of travel adventures
I am from Australia
