Where I'm from

24/7

I'm from a place where where white caliche roads overtake the greenest grass and leave none for the cattle to graze upon.

24/7
colored pencils,crayons, and sharpie

I'm from a place where my blue eyes carried on for generations from the Chihuahua sands.

I'm from a place where all the little girls in the family loved twirling in their homemade gowns made by Grama.  

I'm from a place where chili powdered suckers took the place of the cookies in the cookie jar.

Im from a place where love and support are available all hours of the days and nights, 24/7.
