Cyclic


Tirelessly the earth turns,
Dusk follows dawn,
Night pursues day,
The moon waxes and wanes,
The deep ascends to soon fade from shore,
Expanding and contracting,
Warming and cooling,
Life is a contract with death.


The intellectual yearns to surpass I AM,
Ego soars before the tumble,
Stillness rises from the chaos,
Light emerges,
Darkness recedes,
And the world continues to go round.
