Part of All (a Riddle)

We are part of all families
With roots around the world;
People have lived off and in us.
We may touch the sky;
Shimmer in the sun;
Take in the breeze;
Push up stony earth,
And go through changes
As do children who "conquer" us.

    I'm still leafing through your riddles and though the last one stumped me I do believe I've nailed this one.

    You can never run out of ways to say "good job" as long as you mean it, and I know that you mean it so don't worry. Best regards, always, David

    Hey, Carl, thanks for your comment. Actually, Touchof1der decided to "chill" because she was the premier riddle-meister, which means that she was so successfull at answering them. She decided that it may be better for others if she gracefully bowed out and gave others a chance. However, she does I.M. me with answers and she has solved Lovers, Kings, and Queens. So she still is #1, and because she is so sweet, generous, and humble, she remains Riddle-Solver Champ! As yet, no one has solved A Soul Inspired, so here's your chance, Carl! Thanks again.

    I guess somebody already got this one. Good for her. I don't see where our touchof1der made her mark on this one though. She must be slacking off. LOL

    Yay

    I actually got this poem before I went down and looked at this answer. I felt smart for once in my life. I liked this riddle too. It was great. Keep them coming. They're fun, even though half the time I dont get them. This was the FIRST one I got before scrolling down for answers. It was very easy and I could actaully comprehend it. Good job!

    peace and love

    Huntress gets the apples, peaches, pears, cherries, coconuts, nectarines, bananas, grapefruits, oranges, and everything else under the moonlight in the garden. Good job, now what about A Soul Inspired?
