KE Y STAGE 3 POETRY EXCERPT FROM ‘I COME FROM’ I come from a background of playing with my Cousins, it sticks. I come from haggis and turnips, I come from playing with my brother at kicks (football) I come from gymnastics, I come from a family that is fantastic, Their influence was highly drastic.. I come from small town, It was definitely run down. I come from Scotland. I come from a flag with a moon, I come from eating cereal with spoons, I come from people I’ll be seeing soon. I come from being daring, I come from a background of people constantly staring, I come from a non- diverse town. I come from a family that knows how to turn a frown upside down. I come from a house that was important to me, It isn’t really that clear to see. I come from a family, I come from living happily, Seeing a smile everyday
