I Am

Author: shadow1950

I am a whisper in the breeze
I am a mote of dust blown by said wind
I am everything yet also nothing
I am a tree stretching for the sky
I am the cloud that momentarily hides the sun
I am the life giving morning dew
I am the shadow flitting past
I am the words that I write
I am the visions others see in them
I am the sweet smelling flowers
I am nothing yet everything
I am, I am just me, warts and all

About this poem:

I wrote this for a contest called "I am" where the judge did not want stories just a thumb sketch.

"I am a mote of dust blown by the said win./ I am the life giving morning dew" I really liked those phrases Linda. Just lovely, an enjoyable piece of writing.
