Spilling A Secret

I am a new bird, an un-hatched egg,
Ready to explode and crack open,
Fighting to peep out and see the light.
I am the lightning bugs flying in the dark,
Flashing, and bringing excitement.
I am the flow of the ocean,
Mixing, moving, and churning.
Then everything flows out with the tide.
