Who am I?
Am I someone's daughter, sister,
student, or friend?
I am everyone at once.

Where am I?
Am I at home, school,
a playground, or a field?
I am everywhere at once.

What am I?
Am I a person, goddess,
queen, or speck of dust?
I am everything at once.

I am everyone at once.
I am everywhere at once.
I am everything at once.
But how am I?
I am infinite.

Disclaimer: About a week after I wrote this poem, I read - for the first time - Maya Angelou's "Phenomenal Woman." I am aware that my poem has some similarities to hers, but it is not, in any way, intended to be a rip off of her!
