Answering the Question: "Who Are You?"

In a book I am reading, one artist is asked the question, "Who Are You? She wrote a poem to describe herself. I loved the idea of using symbolism to answer. Mine is below.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Who Am I?

I am cozy warm blankets
that all creatives bundle up in.
Sunrises and singing,
calm dark with sleeping. 

I am lightening bugs flashing
quietly in the forest.
And bridges, the ones connecting cities.

Ask me tomorrow and
growth will change the picture
because, who I am
is like the dawn.
