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”


I am that I am, and for sure
I am blessed with a heart that needs
to share my gifts, as to assure
God's light exists in all my deeds.

That light inspires me to fuse
whatever way I can to say,
most often thought of as my muse,
the visions that my thoughts portray.

Creation stirs from special light
and steers the soul and heart to act
and from this source comes inner sight
how inspiration will extract.

And, so my words pay homage to
the source of light that turns my mind
to image life in ways that do
profess the gifts I've been assigned.
