Notes About The Poem

For the "I Am" Poetry Contest of Unseeking Seeker

__________________________________________________________________

I Am


I am the spring when you are near.
You are its first blossoms that brought me here.

I am lavender all in bloom.
You are lovely lilacs’ heavenly perfume.

I am also spring’s daffodils.
May I brighten your meadows and your verdant hills.

I am zephyr softly dancing.
You are the trees’ green leaves I’m romancing.

I am summertime’s azure sky.
Perhaps on seeing me, one day you’ll sigh.
.
I am the ripples of a cool stream.
You are the sun’s beams making me gleam.

I am autumn when it’s set ablaze.
May you please fix upon me your sweetest gaze.

I am twilight as sun sets tangerine
wishing to touch your smooth sea of blue-green.

I am the winter’s sun rising at dawn,
and you are the snow that I smile upon.

I am the midnight of star-laced skies,
but you far outshine me with your pretty eyes.

I am poetry and so much more.
You are my muse and the one I adore.

I am each season waiting for you.
Please bring me a love that’s tender and true.

thanks so much, Jennifer . I have many sisters and two granddaughters but only one actual daughter. She just finished cancer treatments and I'm crossing my fingers for her and myself that cancer does not return. Congrats on the new little one. Enjoy it while you can. It goes super fast.

He never gives a format. You just have to write over ten lines. Thanks.

Gosh dear andrea theres no fave lines in this one, every word woven in this is just brilliant and beautiful! I tend to do that alot in poems use “ i am” and yours just is so captivating and soulful! And as i read more it kept getting even better! Those last lines hit home for me “I am poetry and so much more. You are my muse and the one I adore. I am each season waiting for you. Please bring me a love that’s tender and true.” This definitely is a fave for me!
