Spent a lot of years
trying to find myself,
a lot of time wishing
I was somebody else,
now, I'm discovering
that I'm not half bad,
I'm just an everyday woman
with a poetic bend,
a lover of nature, and
a garden's best friend.

this is cool, a very uplifting poem with a nice, self-empowering message. pleasant to read and, i'm sure, very pleasant to write.

... and like you, I am finding myself, partly through poetry (am no gardener) and the support of my beautiful partner.

A very nice piece, I like the way it was put together. thank you for your wonderful entry in the contest.
