    my wheel


    does your wheel keep turning
    rolling you further
    away
    does it roll in the right direction
    does it roll your way
    are you ever caught
    inside your wheel
    my wheel rolls
    round and around
    with me
    inside
    sometimes i see the road
    sometimes i see the sky
    questions i see
    as i go rolling by

    IN life we see everything as it goes rolling by . Your poem is condensed to say you have to stop and smell the roses or life will roll on by loved it . well written with great flow Marie

    Reminded my of gettin hit hard by a huge wave in the surf and getting rolled around over and over like in your tire, holding your breath and waiting for your body to rise up to the surface again to catch a breath. SB is right on, as I started reading it I had flashbacks to BP and the time I saw him at the Concert for Bengladesh back in 1971. Thanks for the memories, Whiskers.

    I'm hearing Billy Preston's hit.. *will it go around in circles*... in the background here.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
