The Circle









There is a circle here ....

There is a web

A network

Strands connecting

Those who share the vision

Who feel the hope

Who sense the mystery

We touch life

We hear the planet’s pulse

We work quietly

Together

And alone

Each task

Each piece

Each a part of wholeness

There is a circle here ....

This is a Hopi poem that is circular in nature, meaning it ends where it begins. It is meant to be repeated four times, once for each of the four directions and the four races of humankind.
