simile poem

I am blue
Of oceans and skies
Expansive

I am not a tortoise
Ponderous, wise

Rarher I am a dragonfly
Darting from one idea to the next

I am a brook bubbling
Some think me shallow
But i can smoothen rocks to pebbles

I am winter at times
Cold harsh brittle-voiced
The wind weighing my limbs down

But winter doesn't last
So I wait out the black mood

Look to the sea and sky
Admire the tortoise and dragonfly
Dip my toes in a brook

Till I feel like spring again
