Who I Am is Who I Am Who I am is who I am And who I am is who you see For truth is etched within the eyes The eyes reveal that it is me What I say is what I feel And what I feel is in my heart My heart speaks only for itself And from its song will not depart What I know is what I've learned And what I've learned is what I've lived What I've lived has filled my soul With grains of sand so finely sieved My soul speaks only for itself Its tenet is its only plan The sands of life pour from within Displaying who I really am Elizabeth Santos |

Sy, What it is ,is just a verse Of anyone at anytime What you said is what I heard And I didn't read between the line What I know is that your words Are always warming to my heart For everyone on passionate forum Is warmed by words that you impart Elizabeth |

If what you are is what I see Then you're a gattling gun to me. Your poems shoot out in such a blur And always are top caliber. |

White dove, It's just a rhyme, I know that's true But you are right It speaks of you Balladeer What you are is talented You spin a tale beyond belief My head 's still reeling from the scene Down there on highway 1-8-3 What you write is quite superb For what you know is what you write And quite superb each noun and verb My steering wheel's still turning right!
