![]() Concentric RingsA Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)![]() Just idle musings![]() Pebble tossed into waters deep
Ripples awakened… from gentle sleep Concentric rings of force in search Of mossy banks ‘gainst which to lurch And said stone sinks deep…deep To mossy floor… watched by perch …then seen no more… Small rock tossed, wraps silt around Then snuggles deep into muddy ground And sudden silence, not a peep! It calmly falls into stony sleep On mossy floor…in water deep To visions of rapids and craggy shore Watched by tadpoles …then seen no more… Pebble tossed into waters dank At random picked from rocky bank By chance and fate, and cosmos swept Like life and Nature’s mysteries kept By chance and fate, by love and hate We’re children not of choice, but chance… Given only a summary glance Then seen no more …no more… © 2012 David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)Author's Note
