What do you sound like? We all have a voice but we never get to hear it. So lets try this one. Describe your voice. Tone, accent, anything unusual about it. Let's see if we can stretch it out to the minimum word length of 50...poem preferred but whatever you are more comfortable with. I will try one too. don't forget to tag me.

My voice is the changing weather
From the rain of disdain, to the rays of praise, to the cloudiness of the merciless
It can be as soft as a cool breeze running through the willow trees
It can be as haltingly calming as the rhythmic crashing, collapsing, corrupting waves
It can reach a horrible high pitch, as a response to the irony of how the crashing, collapsing, and corrupting of something could be so peaceful
It can screech and it can break
It can yell in hopes of something or someone to give itself to, or it can be as silent as the night
Ever so often it may whisper at the moon
I've got a million voices all depending on the weather
