WHO AM I?


WHO AM I?

 

Who am I, I ask myself?

My true mood I can’t explain

Sometimes I feel am chained

Expression has to be plain

By this, I can kill this pain

Wisdom pours in like rain

Seek it and make some gain

 

Yet my impact is yet be felt

What is my fault?

Oh, yes me

Who am I?

 

Who I am, I ask again.

Within me, I see a hole

Flourishing, within is a soul

Joy alone nurtures its roots

Yes! Happiness is its fruits

 

Is that, who am I?

Yes, I want to know.

As a stream, I begin to flow

Over time, I have to grow

An unending stretch, as I flow

My source, makes the grow

Halting my exit, in a quick bow

 

Now I know who I am!

My mood has been planed

 I see I have a soul

Liberated, as it flows from source

My source is high up celestial

He makes me, who I am

 

As a seed I was

Contending amongst striving millions

I won the chance to be me

Who am I?

Yes! A champion , defeating the many

I am me today ,

‘cos he knew me then

And picked for his choice

 

 

Am a star in a dark world

A destiny loaded to deliver

Igniting change like a spark

Am great, so he created

A wonder his hand has craft

 

 

Now I know, who I am

In the light of great wisdom

His illumination, has revealed

Am a part of him

hey chum !!!!! excellent content

i really love what you are saying, 'Wisdom pours in like rain' Seek it and make some gain ... seems out of place. i think it needs to be further into the poem, maybe after 'Is that, who am I? Yes, I want to know.' nice mesage of self-realisation love judy
