death song

death song

A Poem by daniel lee johnson
"

here we go around in a circle

"


as it was in the beginning
so shall it be in the end
once i was helpless and toothless
one day I will be again

so it seems that life's a circle
like the spinning of the earth
we take and give what it brings us
but love is the only true worth

and i see myself as reflection
the universe mirrored in my eye
and spin around in unseen circles
till death sings my lullaby

the unknown before we are born, the unknown after we die, and true life is a circle.

death's lullaby yes, we sing it from cradle to the end.....and life is that cycle...we are helpless out of the womb, and then we are helpless at the end...we become like infants once again...
the reflections of life.
