Hay-Ku of the Day ("Who Am I?")

"Who Am I?" is the

Alpha-Omega Question

At the Heart of All.

"Who Am I?" is the

Alpha-Omega Question

One's born to Answer.

"Who Am I?" is the 

Alpha Omega Question

That answers Itself.

Is to Find Out Who I Am

Before Time Runs Out!"

(2)  From the rhymed poetry archive:

WHO AM I?

Who is this I that I seem to be, 

That I feel I am, yet cannot see; 

The one in me I’ve yet to know, 

Though ever present wherever I go. 

Who can it be, this I in me, 

The I that I am, yet never see; 

The one in me that still goes on, 

When all about has come and gone. 

The one in me that always knows,

That never comes and never goes;

That’s always here and never there,

Ever present and so nowhere. 

The one in me, the one in you, 

The I in us and all else too; 

The root and core of all that lives,

The essence and soul of all that is.

The I in all which cannot fall, 

Alive in the hearts of great and small;
That’s never apart and always near,

Knows no hunger and has no fear. 

The one in all, the one in each, 

The one all seek, but never reach;
The I that I am, that you are too, 

The I that answers the question who?
