Let Me Tell You Who I Really Am
By Lynn Vormbrock
I am the sparkle in the eye of a girl about to meet a princess
I am the ghost of a piercing in the ear of a rebellious adult whose father already told her no
I am the tissue wiping a tear of someone who has seen Kate and Leo flying over the Atlantic
I am the reading light glowing at 2am for just one more chapter
I am the nonexistent shadow you see out of the corner of your eye
I am the crinkly tissue paper in a new box of shoes
I am the show-stopper on a Broadway album performed in my shower
I am the colorful thread magically weaving crosses into pictures
I am the fresh smell of an overly cleaned countertop
I am the wagging tail of an excited dog meeting you at the door after a long day
I am the golden bloom in a black winter
I am the Big Dipper in a clouded night sky
