The Cycle

Floating freely, worries gone,
from one world to the next,
Day and Night, Night and Day,
The Cycle carries on.

Finding light, embracing dark,
our lives are but mere specks,
Day and Night, Night and Day,
The Cycle carries on.

Gaining power, gaining wealth,
as we go along,
Day and Night, Night and Day,
The Cycle carries on.

Losing time and losing life,
the wheel turns again,
Day and Night, Night and Day,
The Cycle carries on.

Then we expire and leave behind
all of our mortal cares,
Day and Night, Night and Day,
The Cycle carries on.

    wow, this poem's great...the words seem to fit in with the style...i also like the way it's centred on the Cycle and how you repeat it....

    This piece has a nice flow to it. A nice rhythm that carries on seamlessly. I really liked this piece. Very poetic, indeed. Great write. It had a light airy feel to it. Like a breeze. It read so easily and was put together so well. Great write. - cgirl0410

    This was hard to read, might want to change the font color or the background. Overall the poem was very interesting to read, but hard to see. Saddie23

    Very nice but it repeats itself alot. That might have been how you liked it and it isnt bad but its to repetitive for my taste. It really hits on how life really is although. Things come and go and life still moves on. Great work and thank you for sharing it.

    I liked this. The repeating line adds substance to the poem, I thought that the last stanza was quite poignant.
