Dying to Revive

4/10/09

It's an odd paradox,

perhaps all are such,

this life cycle event

born out in nature

that death makes room

for new to come,

gardeners know it's true

anyone who observes ecology

watching ecosystems regenerate life

are not really surprised

humans are effected also

in process of maturation,

childhood toys are abandoned

clothes no longer fit,

thoughts, consciousness, simply expand,

some good things misplaced,

play, curiosity, flexibility, awe,

adventure, creativity, freedom, wonder,

yet transitions continue unabated

using an inner timetable,

subtle clockwork tumbler mechanism,

which is rarely understood

while falling into place,

not happening until ready,

where present becomes past

given up for 'next',

dying, to revive living.
