I Am...

I am an eagle, soaring through the sky
Spreading my wings, learning how to fly
I am a dolphin, jumping through the air
Flipping and swimming through the sea without a care Maybe I'm a stallion, a strong and mighty horse Cantering through paddocks, galloping with force A fish swimming along in the emerald jewel sea A star, shining bright, or a little yellow bee Sometimes I don't know what I am, or why I'm even there But soon after I'm a seal, a lizard or a grizzly bear You must remember things aren't always as they seem As with imagination you can be anything you dream For all those things I said I am, I know that I'll still be A dreamer, an imaginer, but I'll always still be me.
