I Am From

A poem by Shafayne Mitchell

I am from a land that is filled with milk and sand
I am from a place called Linden town where bauxite done
I am from a place where neighbours are always watching out for others
I am from a river thats brown in colour and a bridge that holds memories
I am from a village called West Watooka were vegetation are grown and cattle are reared and boys hang out by the corner
I am from Freda and Paul and I will stand tall
I am from the West where people aren’t always the best
I am from the West where you don’t have to stress
I am from the mountains and villages where they aren’t allies
I am the Wesleyan Church in the West where God represents the best
I am from rice, whether hot or cold, fresh or old once it’s here I am from there
I am from baked chicken, fried rice, curry chicken  and a little roti
but rice, ah it’s a beauty
I am from games and sports once it’s fun it’s never done
I am from trees and hills.  I don’t mind if I have to get a pill or be a little ill after I’ll stand still
I am from bro’s and brokes
I am from bro’s more than sis, don’t worry I wouldn’t be split
I am from girls who dress up but I don’t really get the fuss
I am from a place where weddings are bless, rice is in excess, and I don’t have to stress
I am from an African race where we can withstand any past
I am from a place where we can appreciate our different races, culture, and faces
