~I Am~

I am always wishing for loves moonbeams
I am ever thinking, in lost daydreams
I am ever faithful to many a cause
I am analyzing, "to thine own self be true"
I am blue sometimes, but calgon takes me away
I am happy to write and happy to read
I am wondering if passion is for songs and playwrites
maybe it's for you and for me
to find our place in the sun

Rose,
this is different, very good, but you might want to check out the challenge format that Janet Marie posted in the challenge forum.

I don't care that you didn't use the format because this was wonderful.   Nothing wrong with putting a little twist into it to fit the writers personality.  I loved the whole poem my friend but the above really stuck with me and sounds just like you as far as I know it.  Lovely read.
