Closed Path

Beginnings are endings. We wander
in circles. Closed path integral –
zero, promising potential. We arrive 
where we started, but with 
more wisdom. Endings are beginnings.

This has a philosophical slant to it, Agnes. So I take it that, the more laps we do, the wiser we become! Then, in the last lap we reach the maximum! Regards // paul

that is SO nice for someone who does not share my feelings on the afterlife, but I know you believe at least something of each individual goes on! Great writing as usual, Agnes. About triolet form, you should visit them in the search engine. Or see more of mine by clicking "form" I have written many many in this lovely little form and Lucidity is not my best work in that form. Anyway, I'm glad you liked it.
