Just Who I Am

Just Who I Am By Angela Briscoe-Shillingford Am I a breath of fresh air that leaves the impression of I'm having a beautiful and blessed day? Am I helping out the world by putting trash were it belongs and not on the streets? Am I taking interest in every child that needs help in everyday life to become as strong and prosperous as God would want them to be? Am I constantly thanking God for his strength and waking every day? Am I smiling even when someone else feels sad hoping I will bring out the joy in them? Am I taking life for how serious it is and not for just to play along? Am I working hard to provide for the needs of my family? Am I too aggressive because I believe that no man or woman or child should kill one another but love one another? Am I wrong to cherish the animals and insects that the lord has glorified us with on earth? Yes! is the answer to all that has been said because if I didn't,then it wouldn't be "Just who I am".

Angela,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@"
