An Introspective Thought

WHO AM I

Who am I this mobile body , a collection of bones and skin
How can I explain all these things that are contained within.
This shell, that assumes different persona each and every day,
That reacts to every circumstance in a varying , different way.

As each morning dawns I awake to a different scene’
New thoughts to assimilate, new words to utter to please,
Those who I will greet throughout this day,
Words to encourage to accompany them on their busy way.

What do others see as I progress along life’s bumpy road,
Is it a person who takes his share of life’s heavy load?
Not someone who groans and moans about being dealt an unfair hand,
Grouching growling because nobody understands.

Am I the person who my wife still thinks, , is the one that she took those years ago,
Whom I promised to love and cherish and never let her go?.
Am I the father to my children The one who guides them through life’s way,
Showing by example how to live each and every day?

To my friends am I that man who is known to keep his word
No matter what may prevail to test such friendships , may it be heard,
He is a man that one can always trust through thick and thin,
No matter what ,may happen, you can depend on him.

Oh that I can live , to keep such ideals, as I go on through life
That to others I will cause no harm or strife,
That by my precepts I can live to God’ Holy plan
And show to all, just who I am.
