My Grandson, Noah Getnick's Poem


Almost-13 is such an interesting age. Most of the time I don't think Noah is listening, but maybe sometimes he is. This is a poem by Noah, written in English class, and I think we are all mentioned in some way. (I think he would give me permission to share). Regina Cho
    • Where I'm From

      By Noah Getnick
I am from a road atlas and running
from Atomics and an airplane
I am from Snowmass Mountain,
Its winding trails cut white stripes through a great mound of green.
I am from the mountains,
Prior Lake
It's shimmering sea of blue reflects the sky.

I'm from the Ohio St.-Michigan game and hard work
from Geoff and Sungja
And Bernt
I'm from worriers and rule-followers
From Do your homework and Practice music
I'm from Mishkan T'filah,
and menorahs

I'm from Chicago, Illinois,
japchae and bulgogi.
From the mirror my great grandfather carried to freedom,
The map that was stolen from my grandfather in Barcelona.

I am a Jew, half Korean
I am loud, but sometimes soft spoken
live in Minnesota,
but am from the sky,
And I look up, aspiring to be something more.
