I Am

I am the sweet uplifting breeze
I am the grass that brushes knees
I am the swallows taking flight
I am the stars that shine each night
I am the water lapping clear
I am the startled look of deer
I am the earth we all live on
I am the one who guides you home

I am the rain in mornings hush
I am the seas titanic rush
I am the snow that whitens trees
I am the pollen on summer’s breeze
I am the sun that warms us all
I am the crashing rocks that fall
I am the earth we all live on
I am the one who guides you home

I am the fire that clears the land
I am the great trees tall they stand
I am the autumn’s crispy leaves
I am the conkers falling free
I am the tears in newborns eyes
I am the last breath that he sighs
I am the earth that we live on 
I am the one who guides you home

Love all the takes of 'I AM' - they each bring about unique qualities that are by themselves greatly admirable. The most touching I must say is '...THE LAST BREATH THAT HE SIGHS' - Lovely poem Lunar!
