Before I Leave The Stage Poem by Alice Walker

Before I Leave The Stage

Rating: 3.1


Before I leave the stage
I will sing the only song
I was meant truly to sing.

It is the song
of I AM.
Yes: I am Me
&
You.
WE ARE.

I love Us with every drop
of our blood
every atom of our cells
our waving particles
-undaunted flags of our Being-
neither here nor there.

Alice WAlker, a name, a poetess but a unique poetess! I like most of her poems, an Ode to mankind, fantastic heart and soul!
