My Neighborhood
I’m from a state of Packers and Badgers,
from a state of the unpredictable climate,
from a state of Harley-Davidsons and Bubblers,
from a state of up north cabins,
from a state of a Wisconsinite style accents.
I’m from a community that follows along the Bark River,
from a community of celebration,
from a community of history,
from a community of ice age trails,
from a community of one.
I'm from a dead end road hidden by trees,
from a road where I don't need to lock my doors,
from a road where dogs run adventures,
from a road where neighbors feel like family.
I'm from a lake where the water stays clear,
from a lake that brings my friends and family together,
from a lake where sailboats race,
from laughter throughout.
I’m from a family of Irish and Germans,
from a family of loose cannons,
from a family of athletes,
from a family of Sunday night dinners,
from a family that sticks together.
