As I’ve told Tessa already, I love her poem – and I especially love hearing her read it. I write more about the experience of teaching this poem and what I’ve learned about claiming my personal heritage as a path to a more artful life in “The Power of Admitting Where You’re From” on the Risk A Day blog at http://www.riskaday.com/risks/the-power-of-admitting-where-youre-from/

great poetry and like everyone says, inspiring. Sometimes people don’t remember where they came from or even where their ancestry lives.

Tessa,

I, too, am inspired. I love your prose.
(This post makes me want to be YOU. *sigh*)

Bello!

Tessa, I so love this and it has inspired all sorts of memories for me…made me think about “Where I am from” in short, little lines…
Thank you for sharing this. It is beautiful.
