I am soft whisper in the trees,
The gentle hush of springtime breeze,
Touching lightly on the earth,
Feel me now, for I am birth.

Behold the glory of the dawn,
Behold first steps of newborn fawn,
Helios shines, begone the night,
Feel me now, for I am light.

I am the warmth of noonday sun,
As flowing streams to rivers run,
Two meld as one, as man and wife,
Feel me now, for I am life.

I am the calm of eventide,
A rising wind, 'cross oceans wide,
Upon land's brow, a chilling breath,
Feel me now, for I am death.

I am the land, the sky, the sea,
Feel me now, and be set free.

if you find anything~let me in
Your eyes~you see everything
my eyes~I see it all together now~and I know
