Love
Hopeful union
Soul mate found
Join in pure bliss
Chosen
Conception
Intertwined energy
Yin and yang
Explode into potential
Life
Birth
Squalling infant
Wide open eyes
Gasps the first breath
Here
Hope
Ephemeral dream
Ambition to reality
Stretching, an unseen hand’s
Potential
Death
Aging comes
Grim, grey parade
Time has its due
Complete
Entropy
Gradual dismantling
Piece follows piece
Reversing each evolutionary step
Decline

Not so much a cycle as a hummock with a ditch at either side…more of a roman agger sort of thing really…or a python swallowing an elephant as in the Little Prince…or possibly even a…I’ll tell you what, I’ll get my hat.
LOL!! 🙂 🙂

Thanks so much!! 🙂
this piece makes the cycle of life seem so much more interesting than it does sometimes:)
LOL…yes, that’s true, it does sometimes just seem like one day after another…. 🙂
These are fabulous Helen! I have always been fascinated by the concept of entropy
Yes, me too, the de-evolution of things, the unwinding, the gradual end.. 🙂
I feel like studying quantum physics now lol
LOL 🙂
The cycle of life continues and thank god for the scribes that capture it so well.
Thank you!! 🙂
This is beautiful and poignant. I want to recommend a song/artist If you haven’t heard it yet. It feels to me that it might resonate with you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWcxKehDrxk (Exactly by Amy Steinberg)
Thank you so much, I will check the song out later today when I have more time! 🙂
