I Am: A Poem Inspired by I Am A Mountain and Walk Earlier Today

I am the still of the dangling leaves in the hot sun
I am the man who is old and shirtless yet runs hard
I am the dirt path between the trees, edging the lake
I am the turquoise blue of Barton Springs creek
I am the green grass of Zilker Park
I am the giant twisty oaks abundant in foliage
I am the hot sun baking the city of Austin below
I am the wistful smoke of the sage I burn to release
I am the dainty crooked necked soot-colored birds
I am the calico cat depositing a ring of washi tape
I am the gray cat with deep yellow eyes beckoning

Inspired by “I Am the Mountain” meditation

I am a writer curious about all the ways we feed bliss into our minds and bodies. With the short time we all have on this earth, how might we be our best selves with ourselves and each other? I enjoy sharing what I am still learning to be a better human.
