I am

I am 
the daffodil
dancing in the breeze

I am
the rain drops
falling from clouds
on gloomy afternoons

I am
the caramel syrup
with whipped cream
topping your iced coffee
giving it its sweet taste

I am
the blue dress
hanging in the closet
waiting for the day
to be picked and 
worn out once again

I am 
the woman looking 
in the rearview mirror
at the young couple
behind her in a loving 
embrace wondering 
her own what-ifs


Although this poem does not necessarily meet the prompt's requirements,  this piece was inspired by the "I am" phrase.
