I Am Canadian I am Canadian…. I have no doubt that that is me.  I am North American…. I have a bigger family just south of me. I am of the Western world…. I also have some friends just east of me. I am life on Planet Earth….. I love that all of you are here with me. I am of the Milky Way….. I often hope that this is not the only place. I am just a single man….. I dream of Love in the stars I see. I am here and wait for thee… I know your out there seeking me  I Am Canadian…. I have no doubt that that is me. James Parker Haley Jan 6, 2001 |

James, I loved your creative expression of I am. Although your rhythm and metre made it way to close to a tune on Aussie television "I am you are, we are Australian" Now I'm gonna be singing it all day and night. Thanks!

So Take off Eh!!!  Marina It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen Marina Crossley |
