Circle
There is no wall there is no gate
There is no time while we wait
There is no you there is no me
There is no singular eternity
A circle starts where it will end
A new beginning around the bend
And so it went and so it goes
And what it's for no one knows
So on we walk so on we run
Have it all as we have none
A dream of life a life of dream
Maybe more than it may seem
Round it goes round is all
And we rise to see us fall
As we plead why oh when
Then we start it all again
There is no time while we wait
There is no you there is no me
There is no singular eternity
A circle starts where it will end
A new beginning around the bend
And so it went and so it goes
And what it's for no one knows
So on we walk so on we run
Have it all as we have none
A dream of life a life of dream
Maybe more than it may seem
Round it goes round is all
And we rise to see us fall
As we plead why oh when
Then we start it all again

Northy, this is wonderful and should be put into a children's book!

Love this, NorthernOne. It's circular indeed - hopefully more like a spiral ascending and descending, ever expanding as we grow. Or if it is spherical, it enlarges with each circle of lifetime knowledge.
I posted The Place Above Time, My Law (Attributed to the Maori) by Tieme Ranapiri in this thread today - this kind of reminds me of that:

We can only hope that it is as you suggest, i like that idea, as i like other humans seek a purpose to consciousness.
Find myself drawn more and more to the idea of timeless oneness within an infinite sphere, the all is one one is all concept i suppose.
i love that poem by Tieme Ranapiri. It has the same tempo as mine, touching on a similar idea too, except more precisely perhaps. Thank you for that Ahavati and i am very happy that you like my little poem

It does have the same tempo - it was kinda weird, honestly. I rarely rarely post any other poem or reference link on someone's poetry; however, it was uncanny how alike they were in essence.
Today has been strangely unique - I was listening to the premier of Nick Cave's new album and the first song was Spinners - and it was at the same time I was reading Poppy's latest, which contained a reference to spinners. . .
This is one of those days. . .

Synchronicity. See what i mean, all is one :-)
Like Nick Cave a lot. Spinning Song was posted on YouTube today so i had a listen. Like that very much. "The Queen's hair was a stairway" is a great line among many other great lines in that song.

It's an idea i have been contemplating for some time, i had to wait until it came to me the way to get it into a poem. Funny how some poems have a long birthing process. Am very pleased you think so highly of it, but mostly that you enjoyed it.
