The Circle of Life
I never really minded the species that inhabited me. I had especially taken a liking to man, however. "I'll take care of you.", they promised. I believed it-- We became interdependent, inseparable. He relied on me, and I relied on Him. I gave Him food, water, and air, He gave me towering buildings that grasped at my...

fruit
fruit we sway in the wind but i grasp the air in hopes it can sweep me from this branch this branch- preserving the purity of my skin- is forced to let me fall i rip from the loosening grip of my cluster a wound on my side- evidence of a new chance- gifted by violent departure i feel the air on my palms i smash into...

God controls when the music stops. A chair is taken away and an important person in my life is taken out. As life continues, the music changes and I change with it. With each chair moving, the tempo and mood of the music changes, but God is there. Important chunks of who I...

Wheels turn The circle of completion always comes around.... From birth To death From the first tear To last sigh We forge onward In hopes to find..... For in a mere inkling of existence.. Of all the silent moments Pondering Retracing Building and tearing down Is it not the spirit we strive to understand As I walk distant memories Hoping to fulfill thoughts lingering in the mind Pushing onward Editing Placing all...

Circle of Life
The leaves are falling Autumn's calling Summer bids goodbye. They'll be showers Watering winters flowers As a cold wind passes by. There will be snow Winter's star of the show When snowflakes from heaven arrive. Then songbirds will sing To welcome in spring Completing the circle of life....

Circle of Life
When I was a lad growing up in the small village of Wakenda, I would sometimes sit on the back porch and watch the stars move across the night sky. I would listen to the tune of the birds and farm animals calling to me every morning. A choir of a hundred different voices singing...

CIRCLE OF LIFE
A two edged knife that deluges us With both the midlife and afterlife Like a tempest, It sways us to ruination and obscurity Then hoists us to reclamation and lucidity The circle of life! It steers us through despair and hope And leaves us in a state of mélange Where the failure to reset  once more Becomes the anchor of...

Zero: the Circle of Life
Zero – The Circle of Life Zero is from where we all start An infinite expanse of nothing and all From the abyss do we rise To claim our fated right Some fadeaway into the darkness Some become one with the light Few settle on the shades of grey Others ride the tides of time Who we were, who we became Is a thought lost...

Circle of Life Each of all that lives on the earth has a circle in the web of life. Take a common stone for example. The stone forced up from the earth by the tectonic plates creates mountains. The mountains broken down by wind, rain and ice create boulders, rocks, and sand. These tumble down the...

Premium Member The Circle of Life: Looking For Answers - Title By Steve Miller
I still don't fully understand why I'm even here. I haven't found that "purpose" that others talk about. I analyze my life at the end of every year, Only to discover another year of mental drought. I live my life day after day and week after week, Waiting for a sign to tell me that what I do is right. All...

At the center of the circle of life stands The great I Am of all that has ever existed, ‘Tis true the best our lives s/he commands Though in our own ways we’ve persisted. The wise creator has given us a free will At the center of the circle of life stands Our example of peace, from ages still, Yet our selfishness...

Through pain you were born, with love you were raised, with hope we sent you off, with pride we watched you from afar, not realizing your dawn was our dusk. Contest: BITE SIZE POEM no27 Poetry Contest Sponsor: Line Gauthier Dated: 19th November 2021...

The Day Your Child Stabs You Version 1 In order to weep I guess I must care; At least enough to stress Over these words, to share. To her free mind, half mine She stares down at me... But not for one second But perpetual eternity. Mistakes, unforgiven, Yet nodded upon, social contracts in the air But forever shunned. The air thick with resentment Over war...

The Circle of Life
The nearness of his ancestors spirits caused a chill. Looking out over the plains he could hear the horses hooves, the riders panting, the buffalo running. He could smell the sweat as it ran down his Great-Grandfather's face, down the broad painted chest, pooling on the back of a saddle-less horse. He could taste the sweetness of the bison meat, causing him to drool,...
