I Am

I am a lovely flower,
who was once only a weed.
Taken back by life's surprises,
filled with so much need.

I am a beautiful butterfly,
just coming out of her cocoon.
No longer filled with sorrow,
opening my wings very soon.

I am an elegant eagle,
just about to take flight.
Gracefully dancing within the clouds,
soaring with all my might.

I am like the sun,
shining beautiful and bright.
When I don't let the thoughts take over me,
turning the daylight into night.

I am like mother nature,
changing all the time.
Shedding my winter coat,
and growing in the Springtime.

I am just a tiny sapling,
but it won't be long before I grow into a tree.
Branches filled with color,
this I can guarantee.
