Today I am

I am a crocodile today, with tears flowing frequently all day
In my mind, I roar and chomp and growl at the world.
I am the color blue today, the color of sadness and grief, yet my favorite color because of the many shades, nuances and moods.
I am a hurricaine today, with my emotions swirling violently
like a storm strong enough to destroy everything in sight.
I am a quiet waters today, a place to rest like God promised in 
Psalm 23, he is my rest and I rest in him.
I am a child of God today and every day and although life is not
easy, I cling to him and he holds me close.
