Reincarnation

Every day, destruction and rebirth,

as the sea flows into land, and land flows into sea.

Hoards of new souls, eager to replace the ones lost in the waves,

like footsteps in the sand erasing one another,

erasing their past,

erased by a wave, erased by the wind,

replaced, misplaced, deconstructed.

Discovered, reconstituted, re-born.

Like waves, never wasted,

perpetually reincarnated.

  1. I’m loving this ongoing ripple of inspiration from you currently. Thank you. This one seems specially poignant at present. Tx

  2. Beautiful, again, yes, continuous rebirth all the time at all levels. My molecules will be reincarnated into flowers when I am buried in a wicker-basket under a tree. Other than that, it is my thoughts, words and actions that will live on forever, therefore no terror of death is warranted. (sorry , second edit, please delete the two before, George.)
