Favorite Quote:
Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
- Albert Einstein


It starts out small.

A tiny drop of gold on the horizon,
But as time cascades along its course,
There is room for growth,
Aided by the pouring blue sea in which it swims.
The golden seed of light expands,
Now casting out branches,
Stretching into the sky,
Without limit.
The branches form leaves,
That fall apart and pale,
White with age,
To drift along the sky,
Destined to fall upon the earth again.
But in different form,
Blue,
To rejoin the seed,
And start the cycle again,
That had been set in motion,
Eons ago.


The author's comments:
I found this piece to come very naturally to me, I really just let the words flow from my mind to my pen. because of such, I find it much more symbolic and including more imagery than if I would have censored my thoughts.

Also, I'm just really fascinated with cycles.

Albeit it may be a tad difficult to follow, I'd like to hear the different conclusions about my message that people have to say.

What do you think this symbolizes? I'd love to hear what you have to say.
