Chameleon

To some I am a brother
Both good and sometimes bad
to mum I am a son to love
I hate it when she’s sad
to god I am rebel
With lessons left to learn
To Satan I’m a bad boy
The sort he’d like to burn
to dad I was a wayward son
A girl in every town
to most of then a disappointment
Cos I never settled down
to my sister I’m a mystery
But she loves me just the same
my cousin she just feels upset
When I don’t call her name
to work I am just diligent
And do the best I can
to colleagues I’m the rebel
Just because they say I am
to me I’m a chameleon
I ‘m different every day
And I just wouldn’t want
to change in any single way.

Favorite Poets: poetry, I guess is many different things to people to me its the everday that plucks at an emotional chord. each poet in turn takes me to a different place. from major epics to ditties, its all about giving of ourselves i guess.After all thats why we are sharing experiences here isnt it?

Not much to add to this one quite straight forward.
The only thing I would say is to make a couple of breaks in there but otherwise good, Yours Ian.T
