All I Want To Be Poem by Woru Sulyman

All I Want To Be

Rating: 4.0


Can you be the eagle?
Soaring so high, wings wildly streched
And flight so flattering

Can't you be the robin?
With wings fluttering,
Carrying a melodious tune

Oh! You can be the parrot
Beautifully coloured
And can crack the hardest nut

What about the swan?
Such majestic strides,
A princess on land, a queen off it

And I answered,
All I want to be, is me.

So short yet says so much! So well articulated. And believe you me it's not an easy path to take when all you desire is to be yourself. Doing things differently to the next person.
