I AM HERE by KATHRINE BALDWIN

Subject(s): DEATH; GHOSTS; PRESENCE; SUPERNATURAL; DEAD, THE;
Dead? No, not dead, not away!
I am here!
Though not within your vision, yet always near.
In the very air you breathe --
I am here.

In the cool of the early morn;
In the warmth of the noonday sun;
In the glory of the sunset glow;
In the peace of the evening dusk;
In the depths of the sky of night --
I am here.

Blended into the ocean's blue;
Melted into the drifting cloud;
When rain and sun unite together,
And stretch across the misty sky
In the rainbow arch of color --
I am here.

Though not within your vision, yet always near.
In the very air you breathe --
I am here.
Dead? No, not dead, not away!
I am here!
