Wheel Within a Wheel by richard lynn livesay

Stone-ground sound wound slightly raw

Infrequent rapture expands the awe

Extracting harmony, so far unheard

Repeating words in solid reverb

The matrix explodes yet uncurbed

A melodious mantra, within expressed

At the dawning of time, never regressed

The spirit of love, gave and caressed

The law of creation; all possibilities

To experience with our responsibilities

Realizing and expressing our abilities

The circle of life spirals eternity’s wheel

Revolves in the aethers and doesn’t conceal

Wow! This is quite a poem. As I read it I was enveloped by images. Wow! Reading this poem was an experience.

the circle (wheel) is everything. We sang Ezekiel Saw the Wheel today (I teach music) and I thought about this once again. We are all connected. A true worship poem, lovely!
