Words cannot explain it Using symbols to define symbols Define the divine? It is a life cycle Rotating within a universe cycle Oneness For energy is never lost Only shared for a while A constant hum Resonating within you Not only birth Not only death For they are one in the same The Inhale The Exhale Exert your will upon the universe Do you feel it push back? The cycle remains after Your consciousness Is blown out like the candle Birds are birds and only birds They are satisfied to sing The warmth of sun The ancient oceans The changing of seasons Cycles among the cycles All of us spinning upon the same ellipses A moon caught in rotation
Tremors upon the placid surface of my consciousness Ripples playing outward into the dark Until it returns to a state of calm And I see my reflection clearly in the surface
