| © 1995 Linda Allen Sometimes I'm Cedar Sometimes I'm Cedar with rain in my hair Roots growing deeper with each passing year Sometimes I'm Willow, I bend in the wind Sheltering my children 'til the sun comes again Sometimes I'm Deer walking soft through the trees Part of it all, such a sweet mystery Sometimes I'm Seagull, soaring high above ground Most times I'm Squirrel, how I scurry around Sometimes I'm Poppy, how my colors explode Longing to please every heart on the road So filled with myself that I light up the sky Sometimes I'm Nettle, and you'd best pass me by Sometimes I'm River just dancing along Filling the air with a sweet river song Then I am Ocean, so strong and so wide Rocking my lover like a boat on the tide Repeat bridge and verse 1 |
