Logic's Song

I once saw an old man with hair the color of snow and in his hand, He held two circulates of gold. I asked the man what the rings were for. One, He said, is for the Young and the other for the Old. With questioning eyes, I looked upon and as He explained, I heard logic's song. An in conclusive reasoning, He said and then a comforting smile, He gave, as He continued to say. (The Young) " The heavy bodies descend by gravity and again the gravity is quality; Whereby a heavy descends is an impertinent circle and teaches nothing. Meaning: The Journey Onward. (The Old) " A circle which touches the curve and close to the point more nearly coincides with the curve than hence is called; Circe of curvation. Meaning: Coming Into Full Circle. An unofficial association of people, I said but the smart set goes there. It's simple my Dear, He said; A plane curve generated by one point moving at a constant distance from a fixed point, (The Young & The Old). As He calculated the circumference of the circle, again He spoke. Every part of which is equally distant from a point within it, is called: The Center, The Soul. He spoke in logic in which I had never heard spoken. A conclusion of a form of argument between two or more unproved statements that in the end, prove each other as one. Alpha, Omega, The beginning and the ending, a circulate of gold. The Young and The Old.

Wow, one of the deepest poems I've read on this site thus far!! So brilliantly philosophical, filled with metaphorical imagery. Definitely the type of poem I'll read again, and again, to pick more understand and meaning, apart from the passage of time, young and old. Enjoyable overall. Check out some of my poems, might find some you like. Peace.
