I Am

Taste the wind and rain. 
Feel it touch upon your tongue. 
Hear it speak to you. 
Smell the dampness of the earth. 
Yell into the wind "I am". 

I am with the storm, 
Rejuvenated again. 
It's strength and fury 
can bring about life and death. 
I stand and watch in awe. 

I am, through nature, 
brought out of my somber pall. 
It's power to heal 
a soul and mind that cries out. 
Nature beckons me to come. 

I am made humble 
by the infinite heavens 
that are offered me. 
A moon full of mystery. 
Stars that guide and inspire.
