I Am Somebody -Metaphorically Speaking

I am the sunset's radiant smile
             I am rain's melody with songs sublime
              I am the energy it takes every day to
                           Play life's game!
              I am that sound in pounding heartbeat
                            in rhymic caress.
            I am the colors prompted by a rainbow
         That awes the eye and touches the soul.
                   I am the sigh a mother prays
                   Listening to a sick baby's cry.
                 I am passion delivered in a kiss
                    I am starlight, said by some...
                  A song rendering love's melody
              I am somebody, uniquely, a butterfly
                             Growing wings.
            I was told once, "God had given me Sparkle Magic!"
                       Children know it's true!

I couldn't enter it because she wanted a new poem for this contest. I identify with all your feelings in this poem which is written much better than mine. Mahalo
