I Know I Am Intelligent Because I Know That I Know Nothing .... Socrates

If I were

If I were a month, I would be the coldest month in your calender

If I were a day of the week, I would be Friday and the freedom that it offers

If I were a time of day, I would be 4am when I talk most clearly to my Angels

If I were a planet, I would be Earth overflowing with hope

If I were an animal, I would be undiscovered and free

If I were a direction, I would be West

If I were a piece of furniture, I would be old well worn and loved well

If I were a liquid, I would be spring water, cool, refreshing and charged with life

If I were a gemstone, I would be mud, as even those considered ugly can shine

If I were a tree, I would be an ancient weeping willow swaying with the winds of time

If I were a tool, I would be a polititian

If I were a flower, I would be a native wattle feeding the birds as they sing

If I were a kind of weather, I would be a thunderstorm rolling over the Plains

If I were a musical instrument, I would be the Bagpipes stirring the blood of the brave

If I were a color, I would be vibrant Yellow, impossible to hide

If I were an emotion, I would be regret

If I were a fruit, I would be a bright yellow bananna

If I were a sound, I would be a saxaphone between the buildings tall

If I were an element, I would be the winds impossible to hold

If I were a car, I would be a classic cruising slow with pride

If I were a food, I would be a spicey hot Vinderloo

If I were a place, I would be distant and alone

If I were a material, I would be flannalette on a winter night

If I were a taste, I would be a french vanilla slice

If I were a scent, I would be the scent of you in my arms

If I were an object, I would be the rain itself

If I were a body part, I would be the eyes the gateway to the soul

If I were a facial expression, I would be deep in thought

If I were a pair of shoes, I would be the ones that God gave me


A meme that been going around. No idea where it started. I saw it on the blog Wanderlust and was inspired to reply. ( Kristen from Wanderlust also ran a great Blog about being yourself in Bloggers In The Buff so my photo at the beginning is my contribution to that. )

What about you? What would you be?
