I toss a pebble into the water,
The mirror like image is disturbed.
Circular ripples race from the centre
Like the beginning of new life,
So many things learned in a short time.
The ripples start to slow becoming bigger
The time for learning starts to be more profound
As life extends into childhood
The ripples extend into waves
Smoothing the path to the future
Where calmness comes into my life
Until old age causes the ripples to meander
Meander slowly getting ever bigger
But never stopping
Those waves may become unseen
But age is just a passing that moves
Moves into an endless time
And those waves show you the way
Into eternity.
