Hoops

Hoops

Life is a collection
of hoops.
We stand in the middle
while going
round and round.
We twirl in spirals

AND

without realizing,
we revolve
with the rhythm
of Earth…
—earth around sun
—moon around earth
—stars following patterns
—the unknown unfolding.

When THIS knowing
comes—a deep sense of
Union is embraced.

No longer are
there countless
numbers of hoops—

There is only ONE.

We are in its center…
a point of
MYSTERY.

From here the dance
goes on and on and on—

We are NOT mere participants.
We are ‘partners’/companions
in creation’s
timeless swirling hoop.
