I am...

I am...

A Poem by Meraki

I am a wolf
I am Red
The woodsman
And the creek
The forest itself
Even granny tucked in sheets

The tower
The hair
The girl locked away
A prince and a witch

Evil queens
Weaver of gold
Dragons sitting a top their
Treasure troves

Glass slippers
Godmother
Sailors and sirens
Roiling oceans
Griffins stealing shinies
Trollsguarding bridges

Bubbles toils and troubles
Mirrors all knowing
Poison apples
Genies in bottles
Carpets gliding under stars

Vampires and werewolves
Billionaires and spies
An experiment gone wrong
Everything awry

I am beautiful
I am sad
Humorous
Or happy
Inspiring
Insightful
Or downright punny
A mystery
Informative
Guiding
Romantic
I am an escape
Horror
Sonnets
Poetry
A journey

Characters
A setting
Plots
Pages filled with ink
A climax and an ending
I am imagination 
I am experience
Captured, written down and bound

Lives
Worlds
Words

I am a book
I am a story.
