I Am
I am like
the tides.
I come and go
quietly and
regularly,
but, sometimes I am
very high or
very low,
only then am I
recognized and
noticed
by others.
Othertimes, I usually go
unnoticed
because being like
the tides,
I am nothing special,
or out of the ordinary,
no one gets excited
over me.
The tides have come
and gone
for years,
regularly,
and so will I.
1977
