....life comes in circles....

I live my life
as I walk the white line
while my faith is carried in my heart not my hand

I've a brother in mankind
as we all bear a life that's planted in our seed
I believe in the good
and the best
that a life can bring to our door

We can give to ourself
a future of means
in the way that we see what's in front of our eyes
every moment every day

Reach down with your hand
pick up your feet
walk in them soft

From inside your mind you can ask what you need
believe in the truth
of the need that you ask
and see it appear

But your eyes have to see
in your past to be sure
what you need, you deserve

If you think it'll come
then you may want to ask
is it what I deserve

Life comes in circles
there's a start to an end of the life that you lead~

Jon...sometimes what one thinks is a straight line is really a circle and the goal is ever eluding. We come in with nothing and we certainly can't take it with us. We can only leave it behind for someone else to appreciate.wave

Never read this one Bentlee.. your poetry always makes me think though.. Interesting read.. full circle, yet always another path, and never too late, to veer, from the one you're on.. if you choose to take it.. teddybear
