You Are The World

All of those faces
And you are one of them
(And still you are them all)
Times come and past
These too are you
Sounds and places
The blue hue of the sky
The way night sets on fast,
The brief glow of a firefly
The violence of a hurricane
And the alarming quickness of fire
These too are you.
The view from a mountaintop,
The course a stream takes,
The yellowing of leaves in fall,
All of this is you
And is in you.
The breath in your lungs
The dirt under your fingernails
This is you;
you are the world.
And you are one of them
(And still you are them all)
Times come and past
These too are you
So many pairs of eyes
Looking and seeing and being seen
And you are those too
(One pair and in one all)
Sounds and places
The blue hue of the sky
The way night sets on fast,
The brief glow of a firefly
The violence of a hurricane
And the alarming quickness of fire
These too are you.
The view from a mountaintop,
The course a stream takes,
The yellowing of leaves in fall,
All of this is you
And is in you.
The breath in your lungs
The dirt under your fingernails
This is you;
you are the world.
