I wrote this poem a few weeks ago when trying to answer the question: “Who am I?”. Well, it stuck with me…so I made a tune of it and got someone to sing it. 🙂
I hope you like it!
I am words
arranged in patterns of the universe
I am letters
jigsawed according to the beat of my heart
I am ink
sometimes cool and sometimes flaming
I am stories and poems
to excite you
to provoke you
to inspire you
to challenge you
to look inside yourself
and find out who you are too

Love the upbeat rhythm of the song — the lyrics and the music go hand in hand in creating this positive environment. That all elusive question is well explored in your words — finding who we are through each other is a lovely thought.

I listened last night before I went to bed and got up knowing I’d be listening and reading again! Wow, Viv! It sounds great with the voice and background music and I love the words – they are so you: I especially love the lines:
‘I am letters
jigsawed according to the beat of my heart’.

Thanks, Vivian. Who am I is a good question we sometimes ask, a lot of tim seeking to findicate self worth.
Of your choices I pick jigsaw puzzles, stories, and poems.
