I Am

I am the darkness and the light.

I can shine brightly — or not at all.

I am the birds in the trees,

the songs they sing,

the wind beneath their wings.

I am the air that is breathed.

I am weaved though everything.

I am the sun and the stars.

I am the people everywhere,

the stones upon which they stumble,

the sand beneath their feet,

all of the water in the sea.

I am all that is seen, spoken, and heard.

I am the mother, the child,

the father and the son.

I am the lover,

the addict, the criminal,

the beggar on the street.

I am all of those retreated from

and often shunned.

I am everything that is touched,

tasted and smelled,

all of that

which dwells.

I am the everything.

I am it all.
