Poetry: I am

by Elaine Claiborne

Created on: June 25, 2008

Who Am I

I am a suspenseful novel, whose pages unfold a story
some of love and happiness, others of pain and glory

I am a celestial body, arrayed in heavenly majesty
shining through realms unknown, an illuminating deity

I am a unknown song, my rhythm's quite offbeat
yet, many long to sing my song, my lyrics soft and sweet

I am a flowing river in search of a broader sea
in hopes that it may lead me, to a better destiny

I am a complexed puzzle, that will try your very wit
but when you finally solve me, you're see how easily my pieces fit

I am a howling tempest, provoking havoc here and there
yet, when my storm is over, I'am a gentle breeze of tranquil air

I am a roaring lion, a masquerade of strength over mite
Which hides within a purring kitten, a most impressive cite

I am a walking theatre, with members broad and vast
sometimes I don't know who I am, for the many characters I cast

Who am I, I am Legion, for many things I can portray
I really can't describe meself,for that would take forever and a day
