That I Am

And For no reason

I start skipping like a child.

And For no reason

I turn into a leaf

That is carried so high

I kiss the Sun’s mouth

And dissolve.

And For no reason

A thousand birds

Choose my head for a conference table,

Start passing their

Cups of wine

And their wild songbooks all around.

And

For every reason in existence

I begin to eternally,

To eternally laugh and love!

When I turn into a leaf

And start dancing,

I run to kiss our beautiful Friend

And I dissolve in the Truth

That I Am
