Who Am I

I am the first drop of Rain diving to the ground
I am the pencil dancing across a blank page
I am the inspiration sparked in your mind
I am the insight of an elder
I am the freedom of a child's laughter
I am part of a greater existence,
and with that I am never alone.
My past guides me
My future gives me hope,
as I blossom in the present.
Nature heals me,
music tames me,
Trees soothe me,
Writing frees me.
I finally love me.
