(I think this was a challenge set by serenity, so to her i want to apologise. Please don't find me too presumptuous for 'having a go', I just wanted to jump on the 'I Am' train! Not very detailed attempt either, but hey! It's me! *Becky*)

I Am…

I am an elaborate human patch-work,
Intricately detailed
In an array of blinding colours.
Carefully hand-crafted
By all who have touched my life.
Ever-growing and never to be complete
As the needle passes
From hand to hand
And friend and enemy weave
Small pieces of themselves
In me
To no pre-determined pattern
In this rich tapestry of who
I am.

Once again SEA, thank you. I couldn't really think of any other way to describe myself, as the only think that makes me who I am is everyone around me. Sew (hehe), I decided to go with the patch-work! Thanks for reading
