“I Am”

Sam Hollingshead

I am warmhearted as a friend, neighbor and stanger, and I am confident with my thoughts and my tasks

I wonder if peace will ever be found in our closed door world

I hear the balmy singing of a viola string, as my bow is confidently lifted off of it after a challenging piece of music

I want the world to realize its differences and make peace from those differences

I am warmhearted as a friend, neighbor and stanger, and I am confident with my thoughts

and my tasks

I pretend that the coronavirus is gone, although it always lurks in the shadows of my thoughts

I feel the balmy hugs on my frigid cheeks from the wind while I stand at the beach

I touch the wishbone with thanks on Thanksgiving Day, when I give my family wishes of good luck

I worry about coronavirus plaguing the earth right now

I cry when an injury sneaks up behind be and attacks, like a lion jumps on their prey

I am warmhearted as a friend, neighbor and stanger, and I am confident with my thoughts

and my tasks

I understand that we all don’t enjoy one another, but we need to have respect

I say working hard is a primary key to opening a thick door

I dream about being a strong leader, helping others when they need my help

I try new foods confidently, like a person trying on their shoes

I hope that we have a coronavirus vaccine to put out this burning fire spreading rapidly

I am warmhearted as a friend, neighbor and stanger, and I am confident with my thoughts

and my tasks
