I Am
I am emotion. I am joy and happiness. I am with my family and good friends.
I am birds and a musical life in nature. I also hear the sounds of the big city and I feel at home.
I am the fresh mountain air, the fresh air of the forest. Life-giving food is in abundance.
I am in love with the love of my life. I feel the embrace and the embrace of our children.
I am fresh, good food surrounded by loving family and friends, sometimes out in nature and other times above the hustle and the bustle of the big city.
I am at peace with myself as I worship God how, when, and where I may with others.

Fingers
Pointed
In
Rage
Show
My
Heart
Maybe
It’s
Time
To
Move
Along
New
Paths
Seen
And
Suspected
In
The
Distance,
Tired,
Frustrated,
Broken,
As
I
Stand
Judged,
Perceived
Searching
For
A
Home
Far
From
The
Other
And
My
Aching
Soul,
Sitting
Instead
Surrounded
Alone
In
Darkness
Not
Yearning,
Wilting
Into
The
Anonymous
Nothingness
Of
Another miserable
Existence
Quitting
All
