Soar Without Grip

Life is a circle
That follows a path
A loop of illusions
Where fate mocks or laughs

Spinning us round
From birth to our deaths
We spiral in echoes
The pattern well set

Are we so different
From mortals before
The centuries change
But not, human core

Life is a circle
And yes, circles slip
They tip and we fall

Then soar, without grip

Wisdom with a twist in the end; you have expressed your thoughts through an effective poem.

Yeah, when the laughter and weeping, peace and war, sanity and insanity, and life and death become the same, then we know that the circle has stopped - at least for those souls who have loosend their final grip on the circle of life and have fallen asleep.

Makes me think of a spinning dime or a never-ending elipsis... and of the earth spinning on it's tilted axis. While in motion, even our off-kilter is balanced. We gather our energies from went before and hand the baton on to what lies ahead. Great work of words and inspiration as always! xx

I loved this! I love the picture too... fabulously interwoven and circular in nature.

Time changes, but not human nature.

Very nicely put...and to capture the source of what life is in so few words yet also very real.

I was reminded of Nietzsche's 'eternal recurrence.' 'A loop of illusions', indeed. And if truly so, perhaps WE ARE the 'mortals before.' You packed a great deal to ruminate and discuss in only sixteen lines. Excellent!

Those that forget history are condemned to repeat it - one of my very favorite quotes - came to mind reading this one - excellent, Lady A.

I believe this is the best poem I haver ever read insofar as making perfectly clear, in a simplified manner, that old adage . . . "History repeats itself" over and over and . . . Yeah I know that is redundant, but this is my comment . . . LOL . . . VERY well done bit of writing here . . .

The Ancient Circle of Life - something we should all strive to protect.

And quite a lovely graphic, Queenie.

Powerful write we should all take to our hearts. " The centuries change, But not, human core " ...
If only we could! Very well said.

Best always,
