Who Am I? Poem by Romeo Della Valle

Who Am I?

Rating: 4.8


Can you find a humble man?
I am who I am and nothing
More with no pretenses
One who holds no deceptive
Goal,proud yet modest
Kind and caring and
Holding no other plan!

I am gentle and kind
The living spirit of my soul
Hoping to inspire with my words
Written in my poetry world
That which holds the key
To the essence of life as
I see it clear, my own
Philosophy without sorrow
Or regrets for what I
Might have been!

I am the color at the
Rainbow's end shining
In my own light and
Hoping to leave behind
A trace for others to shine
I sing my songs to inspire
And uplift the downtrodden
Spirit leaving a legacy behind!

When the winds change
Their course leading me
To my final destination
I hope and pray not all I say will
Be washed away in the rain!

'I am the color of rainbow'end....' What a sparkling imagery! Certainly you have a lot of talent to raise the question about your own existence in such a remarkable way. I liked the poem for its style and thoughts. Very poignant indeed.

Wow again! Your words make me feel like when I am listening to a good song that takes me away to that place.... I commend your skills. Rated it a 10! ! ! Keep writing. Isn't funny how individuals are so different but when you read poetry it takes on a whole new form.
