I am not ...( but I do it anyway!)

I Stretch my self thin!

I am not an intellect.
Yet, I can chew an argument
to the bone without giving an inch to doubt!

I am not a philosopher,
Still and all I can perk an idea to sediment!
Like a ride on one way street.

I am not an author.
All the same I do pen volumes,
but only in my head!

I am not a chemist,
However I do have ways to put me to sleep fast
without pills!

I am not a psychiatrist...
Even so, I do collect volumes of analysis
On mental issues from the news outlets!

I am not a soldier.
Nevertheless, I will fight with tooth and nail
for what is right;
Because I am a mother and an animal lover!

I am not an Architect.
Yet, I can build monumental dreams
On a single lottery ticket!

Quite human.
Nicely said!

This is very good -- entertaining & thought-provoking. I love the various examples you chose for each stanza, plus the way you express your abilities in fresh unexpected terms. Tons of originality, yet we can all relate to each of these examples. I like stanza 1 & 6 the best! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Strong statements full of optimism and good self approach!

You know, if you do this things even though you are not expert on them anyway, there are people who will not like it and may even liken you to being fake. But in the world today, you are free. Remember, there is nothing you do that it won't be talked about. Don't please anyone, be yourself and love it.
