Why I Am Me

Why I am me,
                                                                   
because of Thee.
                                                               
He wanted me this way,
                                                     
for today.
I have lived in many places,
                                               
I have seen many faces.
                                                   
His face is what I want to see,
                                           
in the clouds and in the big blue sea.
He made me a girl,
                                                           
with many a curl.
                                                             
Then a mom,
                                                                   
so I could read a psalm.
If I had a wish what would it be,
                                         
that He and I could have tea.

Good thing this poem is not about me. I'm too moody these days. Your poem is beautiful though. Best for a win.
