As I Am

Don’t see me with your eyes,
see me with your spirit
I am not what you see
I am not heavy or skinny, I am me.

I am divine, I have come for this time
To show you who I am, the real me is not what you can see but
what you can perceive.You try to figure me out
but I am not to be examined, I am to be known.

The same me is inside you
look see, we have different shells.
we said you are thin, I am black
we are the same, take another look while
perceiving from within.

Now look, we are the same, you are his representation
as I am his ambassador carrying his name with a different color.
Yet when it is analyzed we are hear for the same purpose
to recognize ourselves in one another.

A different shape but the same name, Christ.
He is eternal as you are eternal, the same yesterday, today and forever.
You can not die because you are not the physical, you are not
too thin, too heavy or too dark.
You are in fact perfect, a perfect being with no real color
except the color of perfection.

You are a spirit being, not to be seen but perceived with
what is called the eye of the beholder; a third eye, that sees
the true mysteries of love.

This love is a force that is able to see things for what they are.
Understanding that within all, substance of proposed reality there is
"Truth" imbedded. This love does not see separation, lack, evil or anything
of the like. It sees beauty as well as thought provoking, serene, happiness.

Therefore perceive, dwell and enjoy the sameness of our image
Let us look at each other as in a mirror and see our one true image
the image of alikeness and of love.

As I am

Poem: Today

Today is a special day, a day of life, of blessing and joy.

Only truth that passes understanding can manifest in this realm we call world.

Today is a day worthy to be honored, a day of life,
excitement and peace. A day when the realization of one’s true self is manifested.

A day of life unending- a day chosen out of the book of life; to be enjoyed

A day of fulfillment, this truly is. The reaching of divinity of mind, body, soul and spirit.
