I Am

Being who I am It appears that I am ... A thinker cogito ergo sum A Feeler therefore I am more A searcher carpe diem A collector of oriental carpets A bookworm devouring pages A listener ready to hear Father of five Husband once more Lover of one Soulmate of the same Jokester and jester Serious clown A crazy insane one A depressed patient An impatient sufferer A healer retired A doctor of mind A lost one found again Of harmony In peace Doubting Full of faith Introvert hermit Extrovert human I am all in one I am all in one I am all in one Body Mind Soul Soul Mind Body Mind Body Soul Don’t fit in a box Jo-Jo out of control Slingshot on target An outcome detached A promise fulfilled Destiny in the making I am addicted to life as it comes Used to imbibe Cleaned up my act One step at a time My life is no race Its progress beats perfection I know that I know nothing fully Of that I am sure and thus safe A philosopher of sort Traveling gypsy on a road To somewhere To nowhere With my attributes on a button I’m crowded Never alone Blissfully loved Embraced for ever A companion A poet tree in motion

This is such a layered depiction of who you are and probably one of the finest I have seen till now. Every layer leads to different directions yet the ideas converge towards the end. Beautiful! :)

Thank you so much Michelle. At first I did not want to write a list poem. I am glad that I did though. It is good not to always stray on the same path. Kind wishes, Kai
