I am the color purple
with a hint of green
I am all things wished for
and all things dreamed

I am laughter
to heal when you cry
I am the friend
that doesn't ask why

I am beauty
in the eye of the right beholder
I am fire
when the nights turn colder

I am the answer
that still makes you think
I am the memory
you can't drown with drink

I am the song
stuck in your head
I am words
that never were said

I am the dancer
you see in the rain
I am the sigh on your lips
that you can't refrain

I am peace
when you need to rest
I am a mother
always tending her nest

I am forgiveness
when you've done wrong
I am steady
powerful and strong

I am release
when you need to be free
I am Susan.............
otherwise known as SEA!

Gee, Susan, you sound like a wonderful person but I'd have a problem with purple with a hint of green

This one kept my eyes to screen
The flow of rhyme was great indeed
Luved the way you carried it thru
I'll surely be looking out for more of your works.

I loved this SEA!  Really well done indeed!  These lines gave me a double-take, they are expressed so well:

"I am the friend
that doesn't ask why"

"I am the answer
that still makes you think"

"I am the memory
you can't drown with drink"

Really well done! Loved the thoughts here!

"You are" wonderful!

Best wishes,
/Kit

One thing I know for sure is that you are a poet with talent, great work!

God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown
