Hey Readers!
Today I'll be writing about my identity in a form of a poem, hope you enjoy.
I am from coffee, from Folgers and beans.
I am from the tree on top of the hill, the sun shining through the leaves.
I am from the fern bush, the oak tree.
I am from family dinners and quiet people, from Nawang and Tshering and Tenzing.
I am from the stubbornness and impatience of my family.
From the desperate times.
From be quiet! and be happy!
I am from namaste, and other prayers I can say.
From the life my grandpa lost climbing a mountain, half of his soul is still up on that mountain, and the time I almost lost my life on a mountain.
I am from shelves of family memories.
I am from the limbs that branch out from the family tree.
