Let's play a guessing game

Try and guess what I am

I am the beginning of time

The reason why you can create crime

The one who made you able to climb

The reason for Life itself not only in my prime

I am the sand walk on

a potal to spawn

Still don't know?

I am Grace itself

I am gratitude embodied

I am the reason why the sun rise

and why the moon is so bright

Should I make it more simple?

Maybe in a language you understand

my flash is seen by all

And my yes's are not seen

I am the reason for all bad

Thank you Eve

M for men because I was made to serve. make sure I have a clean chin.
