Carol Hovey Poet Rhyme

I Am

I Am 
By Carol Wright Hovey

I am from the memories of my mind
Memories that shaped the real me to be
The me, who’s wise, aware and a gentle kind,
The inner me grownup molded to really see.

I am of people who shared my life space
A space of early wisdom and ole lady charm
My space now filled with who what where and grace
Learned experiences and a ‘new view’ of a greater sum

I am the cushion of love, the window of clarity and the floor of strength
I am the vessel of my Creator’s own personal craft
I am the composite girth of family, friends and foes - hence
I am the best of my present, my future and of time past.

I am the sum of all that shaped the “who of me”! 
                                         I Am!
