Where am I from

Where am I from

  I am from that shore of the vibrating dance, from the sun and the foam. I am from the morning mist, the avilanian lilies & Caribbean wind I am from the slopes of steep Avila, home to the singing macaws, full of golden trees and blushing orchids the desert, jungle, snow, and volcan I am from your guayayo con sobado snack and with skin tanned like a flower, from Isabel and Gabriela and Mejias I am from the where happiness is born from the simplest things And words are decrees From arms that propels me to an infinite limit and teaches me 48 rules I am from Disney with my adventurous angels Protectors of a bold bubble that left at dawn and migrated to raise I'm from Santiago the lion, caraqueño A year arepa with butter and guayano for December with hallaca & ponche From the audacity of her dreams & the strength of her will the wrinkles in under her eyes full of wisdom & lessons and the fire of his ambitions with his truths of reality I am from Caracas, Venezuela.
