Infinity’s Gradient Motion

 

 

Wanting
As ripened fruit


                          I birthed

 

Falling toward other beginnings
Choices unbridled


                         I knew

 

Warm hands met me
Waiting sounds


                          I heard

 

Soft urges
Anxious voices
Holding my inborn stillness


                          I traveled

 

With adolescent cries of immortality
Mother decreeing my death premature
Sun did shine
Rains did come


                            I lived

 

Collecting earth-time
Singing its experience
Clock hands began their hesitation
Movement ever cautious


                            I readied

 

Archives labeled
Summoned filings completed
Making of my heart
A final mortal expansion

Time to prepare for the next ever living

Transition into infinity’s gradient motion

Seems to be an encapsulated manner, in poetic style, of life's birthing, progress, and termination all in the cyclic wheel of infinity. I could be wrong.

I came, I lived, and I died. Comes to mind. When one speaks of infinity, it makes one's life very small in perspective. Thoughts like, "seize the day," come to mind with such a short time on this mortal coil. But I am often wrong in my assessment. Perhaps others gathered other from your words.
