I Am

I am the wind whistling through the trees.
I am the breeze that cools on a hot summers day.
I am the hot summers day.
I am the twinkling stars.
I am the glint of light on the ocean.
I am that invisible half noticed motion in the corner of your eye at night when you could swear you saw something move only to look at nothing there.
I am the unseen entity near the ceiling of the room that so mesmerizes babies and small dogs.
I am the noise at night when you’re tucked away in bed and suddenly wakened by the unknown.
I am the rattling window pains and the staccato of the driven rain against the roof.
I am the chill on a winter’s morn.
I am the inner voice warning you where not to tread.
I am that harsh nod that pulls you from the dark place while driving.
I am that perfect song that plays at that perfect moment.
I am the flame that hypnotizes around a fire.
I am that one smell that moves you back in time.
I am that memory that makes you smile for no reason at all.
I am the tear that is shed for past loves and dear memories.
I am the warm dry place the makes you feel secure.
I am that goofy face you make in the mirror when no one is looking.
I am the song sung in the shower.
I am the tune that is unconsciously hummed.
I am the longing for the past.
I am the hope for the future.
I am that tremor that runs through your body making you shake as if you’re cold.
I am that crisp breath of morning air.
I am the shade from the burning Sun.
I am that quick nap on a stuffy afternoon.
I am the anticipation on Christmas morning.
I am the excitement at night before a big day.
I am that glorious feeling while making love.
I am love.
I am that first drink of frosty cold beer.
I am that feeling at dusk that reminds you of being a kid.
I am that feeling in the morning when you can sleep in.
I am the sound of a babbling brook.
I am the excitement of returning home after a long absence.
I am that brief moment when you can laugh like a child.
I am the rush of a carnival ride.
I am the innocence of a baby.
I am the wisdom of the ages.
I am the tissue thin skin of the elderly.
I am the musky smell of large cities.
I am the sound of tropical rain forests.
I am the unknown curiosity of the sea.
I am the vacuum of space.
I am the cool dampness of caves.
I am the desire to be more than I am.
I am all things that are yet to be.
I am that which makes us come back time after time.

I am life.
