I Am Poem by Keri Jopplin

I'm happy, I cry but I won't let life get me down for long
I'm funny, I hear laughter around me, so I must be
I'm generous, not to a fault, so don't take advantage
I'm worthy, I always try to be the best I can be

I'm special, I see with better eyes than most
I'm optimistic, I try to see the positive or at least the lesson
I'm kind, I want to help & I won't judge you
I'm good, I have to do what I feel is right

I'm a good mother, I've made sacrifices, mistakes & I encourage
I'm hardworking, I try to do the best job I can
I'm the best friend anyone could have, I will always be there for you
I'm protective, I will always look out for you

I'm passionate, perhaps a little overwhelmingly so
