Poem 43 : The Circle around you

An end in itself

Is a beginning.

Like a circle,

Which ends to begin,

Which begins to end,

Which sides cant bind,

Which is infinite,

Which is a continuity,

Which starts at centre,

And can end only at centre,

Like your life.

Life as they say,

tests you from

the very beginning

Till the end.

The circles revolves

around you, with you

In centre, the centre of all.

People have tried,

From ages long,

to find the pi

Of circle, but it

still grows like you

In the vast cosmos

Of universe, yet

We strive and thrive

To find the end,

The end that begins.

Like the seven strings

Of music that plays on

Your turbulent senses

Trying to bring an eerie calm

Yet the temple strains

Persists in search of pi,

The pi of circle,

The pi of life.

The search that never ends

And Never did it begin.

We have come with gifts

To think, to adapt,

To survive, yet we see

What is beyond,

what makes us,

what ends us.

Few remain in this

Search at the end

To see and smile

”Oh so, this is the beginning!”
