The pool
The pool, with an infinity edge
Reflecting the sunlight whilst
Mother Earth bares
All of her pain
What is a soul
An infinity edge
With trickling water
And ripple
The dogs are barking
Barking barking
Chasing the chicken
Into the earth
Seeking revenge for blood days
And the children of myrth
The pool, with an infinity edge
It never ceases to be
For the days upon this ledge
And a swishing encompassing sea
Reflecting the sunlight whilst
Mother Earth bares
All of her pain
What is a soul
An infinity edge
With trickling water
And ripple
The dogs are barking
Barking barking
Chasing the chicken
Into the earth
Seeking revenge for blood days
And the children of myrth
The pool, with an infinity edge
It never ceases to be
For the days upon this ledge
And a swishing encompassing sea

I felt so bloody small after reading this 1, you, as a writer took me to the very moment time was born, then back again, now I understand how much my life as been lost. The ticking of my clock could be making ripples in a pool only yesterday can enjoy. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr, in my head space has no limits but my mind builds cages. sweet poem, enjoy'd the dip in your pool vart@rt

A profound poem that brings eternity to mind, and the infinite nature of time, the immortal nature of the soul, and the sheer vastness of all that is in the universe and beyond it as well. Yet the poem is told in simple, easy to understand verse that sings nonetheless with its' own power. Simply brilliant work! An enjoyable read.
