Poem: "I Am Who I Am"



I am my Ancestors' dreams

the reflection of their beauty

the brightness of their faith

and yet I am new


I am a flower that has never been seen before

I am blossoming


I am one who will one day be reflected in a beauty that is familiar

and still altogether new

I am one who will elevate above the things that do not cultivate life

I am one who is in a musical ensemble

I am one whose solo is coming up

the improvisation of which is the power of the ensemble's togetherness
