I am Poem

Write an I Am Poem     On-Line Generated



I am (two special characteristics)

I wonder (something you are actually curious about)

I hear (an imaginary sound)


I see (an imaginary sight)
 
I want (an actual desire)

I am (the first line of the poem restated)
 
I pretend (something you pretend to do)

I feel (a feeling about something imaginary)

I am (the first line of the poem repeated) 

I touch (an imaginary touch)


I worry (something that really bothers you)

I cry (something that makes you very sad) 

I understand (something you know is true) 

I say (something you believe in)

I dream (something you actually dream about)  

I try (something you make an effort to do) 

I hope (something you actually hope for)
  

I am (the first line of the poem repeated)

Sample:

I Am
I am sharp and focused
I wonder what the camera really sees
I hear the buzzing bee
I see flowers in early morning light
I want to stop time in a box
I am sharp and focused

I pretend to be a statue
I feel the shakes inside
I touch the shutter button
I worry about the blurry result
I cry that the moment has forever passed
I am sharp and focused

I understand moments in time
I say let's freeze them forever
I dream of watercolor effects coming to life
I try to see all the soft muted edges
I hope it happens someday
I am sharp and focused
