What makes KMD special to you? The poetry edition

I'm running a writing competition at the moment - just a line, paragraph, however much you want, on what makes KMD special for you.

Here's Emily's answer (not their real name).

 

"Today I'm a buccaneer, Jacquotte lives in me

The horizon's ahead, and I'm sailing free

 

Today I'm a songbird, an alouette

In the dawn light, I perform my pirouette

 

Today I'm calm, in an aura serene

I ride out the storm walls, that crash around me

 

Today I'm just me, a daughter and wife

With a little bit of deadliness, to get me through life"
