I am thoughts
I am too soon
Savory melding
Of thoughtful and wonder
Full of blunder
All asunder
I am pain deeply placed
I am wonder fully interlaced
Failures are many
Successes a few
Many to critique
A few to soothe
Time dances on
Will more ideas spawn
I am soft and hard
I am a burgeoning bard
Words swimming by
Thoughts often nigh
Working hard many a try
Time dances on
I felt an idea spawn
I am cool and away
I am withering and afraid
Far away lights say no
So much so many don’t know
Life it seems
Left time alone
Time dances on
No more spawn
I am me I write I see
I am me I am me

Paul, this just simply has to be your best piece of work thus far!
Amazing insight into you...the I Am of you.
You took this challenge and answered it with a twist..
I very much enjoyed!
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

~The breeze that kissed you on the face,
    Has held me in the same embrace~

Ah Paul:
You ARE the conscience and the hope of the heart...I read it so often in your verse.
This was a great challenge, and I am so pleased to read you. TD
