Where I'm From
I am from the backside of the Bull City
It was there that I found the musical potential in me.
I am from shooting hoops on the court,
While looking at my parents for support.
I am from going to school and getting an education,
Then I take a well-earned vacation.
Looking back at all of the things that I am from,
I am proud of who I will grow up to become.

Reflective Paragraphs
In this assignment I had to write an eight line poem titled "Where I'm From." The purpose of this poem was to describe myself and the many aspects and attributes that made me who I am today as a person. Each stanza is written with the words "I am from" shown at the beginning of the stanza. This poem has four stanzas with each stanza containing two lines.
The challenges I faced in this assignment were trying to find a good rhyme scheme to match each stanza in the poem. I resolved my problem by sitting down and carefully thinking of possible words to make a legitimate rhyme scheme. This assignment helped me learn about different way to write poetry. This assignment will help me in the future whenever I need to write a descriptive poem about where I am from.
