I Am (Also)

Written for a series of prompts during one of Beth Kempton's SoulCircle lives.

I am the moon 
     All seeing, all knowing, filled with secrets. 
     I reflect the light of another, shining it into the darkness. 
     I wax and wane, pulling the sea with me.

I am a wisp of smoke 
     Teasing the nose on the breeze. 
     I dance on the currents, enticing others to follow. 
     I refuse to be dispersed, pooling in the lee behind the trees. 
     No one knows where I originated, even I have forgotten, as it doesn’t matter. 
     I frolic on the crispy wind, bringing warmth to each heart I touch.

I am a seed 
     Buried in the dark 
     Drawing nutrients from the decay around me 
     Daring to break through my protective shell 
     Stretching to reach for the light 
     Growing stronger with each wind that buffets me
     Bursting forth into bloom
     Leaving behind seeds to grow in my place
     
I am becoming:
	A better version of myself
	Inspired
	Knowledgeable
	The matriarch
	More in tune with my needs and desires
