Circle of Choices



Wow if you live long enough you will get dizzy

For life is full of many circles.

Circles of cycles,

That take you right back to your roots

Hair roots, grass roots, and umbilical roots

Oh yeah life will take you back, even while moving forward

And the forward march is on the way down to the end

We work so hard only to reflect on the day’s pasts

And hope for our shortening future in forecast

Oh yeah life takes you in cycles

Enemies who were once friends

Come humbly face to face with you again

What did you fight about

No one can recall

You hold each other with regret for time lost and ball

Life takes you in circles that erase foolish cares

The child rocked in your loving arms

Now walks away down the isle in another’s led away by their charm

You wore diapers you changed diapers, now you wear them again, nothings changed

It may be new to you, but in life it is prearranged

For life will take you in a circle of cycles.

The dizzy better get busy before they lose their stand

Once a child once a man and an interim of lessons to learn and understand



Life looks long to a child

A well-learned man grasps at his fleeting years like straws

Drowning in a sea of expired time years like months,

Months like weeks, weeks like days, days are passing moments

Yeah life will take you in cycles

And the faster and smaller they will go

And dizziness becomes the flow

Chance and opportunity are far and in between

So while the cycle is enlarged take each step with care

The rhythm will come though your pace will go

For life is a circle of cycles

Circle of choices,

At long last the circle will end

A flat line with no more camber to live in.
