If I Am

If I am the moon, I will give you the stars.
If I am the sun, I will give you the clouds.
If I am the rain, I will give you the rainbow.
If I am the thunder, are you going to fear me?
....................
If I am the wind, I will give you the warmest hug.
If I am the sea, I will wash away all your pains.
If I am the light, I will brighten all your days.
If I am the night, are you going to curse and hate me?
....................
If I am a bird, I will sing a song for you.
If I am a leaf, I will dance for you.
If I am a mountain, I will stand for you.
If I am a rock, are you going to break me into pieces?
....................
All these masterpieces...
to let you know that I am but merely a human.
to tell you that I am but an ordinary being.
to let you know that I can do these things.
If only I were born to any of these masterpieces.

@Strenj the last paragraph in poem got me thinking about something the writer of the creation did or did not intend perhaps.

It is really nice to know if someone will love us during our ups and even more especially when we are down. Understand us when we seem like a thunder. Give candles during our night. Won't show paper when our hand sign is a rock (ha ha). It is a nice feeling when someone love us for who we are...
