Notes About The Poem

Written on August 24, 2026

I AM That I AM Poetry Contest

Sponsored by Unseeking Seeker

I Am That I Am

I Am That I Am

 

Line of inquiry:

“a heartbeat pulsating as living light

free from each and every limitation

I Am that dwelling in unbound delight

the source wherefrom arises creation”



My Poem



I sought Him - In the lows and highs,
In the darkness, in the light
In the warmth of spring,
In the chill of autumn’s breeze

I sought Him - In the joy and the pain
In the sunlight, and the rain
In the wonder of life’s blessings
In the knowledge of each lesson

I sought Him - In the beauty and the fear
In the laughter so sincere
In the song that robin’s sang
In the gentlest winter snowflake

I sought Him - In the knowing and the naïve
In the distance and the familiar
In the quiet and the madness
In the sweetness of a favorite prayer

I sought Him - In the melody of falling leaves
In the silence of imploring grief
In the wonder of echoed praise
In the beauty of heaven’s grace

I sought Him - In the mountains and the seas
In the colors of hope and humility
In the heart who truly believes
In the truth of spiritual empathy

I sought Him
And found Him 
When I knew
Wherever I am… God is there, too!

Dear Gina, What a deeply moving POTD, a beautifully rhythmic hymn of discovery and devotion. Realizing that the search ends not in some distant, unreachable height, but right in the ground of our immediate being, wherever I am, God is there, too is a liberating truth. Gina, it is such a radiant, uplifting piece of faith. Blessings, Daniel
