Swirling

I must be swirling through a blur

Staggering sideways after all the spinning

Things must be roiling all around me

Maybe I saw heaven from every side

Swimming strongly or is it the current?

Going crazy just making sense

Standing upright, floating upside down

Falling softly from all directions

Fading off in those cool shadows

Turning upwards with the school of fishes

I think I twirl as I am gliding

There is no real sense that I am falling

My mind is clear though we are whirling

Remaining focused on the past unfurling

Through it all in this gentle swirling

In eddy resting and vortex yearning

Bobbing calmly in their wakes

Building with the clouds to rain

Sliding down this swell that’s curling

Achieving much through simple swarming

I might be part of something bigger

But quite alone when at last it’s over

My thoughts merge with this cat’s purring

In snowfall patterns there can be no hurry

I no longer fear this constant blurring

Losing focus need not bring on hurting

I go on swirling through things moving

Holding on? Who can I be fooling?
