The Cycle Of Life Poem by Robert Edgar Burns

The Cycle Of Life



When articulating of semantics,
Speak of the Law Of Thermodynamics.
Creation past has been completed.
It is finished should be repeated.

Neither matter nor energy can,
Be created or destroyed by man.
Every ordered system with advent of time
Will become depleted even the sun’s shine.

The wind flows toward the south
And returns north as it comes about!
Air currents circle around the earth,
In a rotating cycle that is rehearsed.

All rivers run right into the sea
But the ocean’s aren’t full in this circuitry.
They give it up to the clouds as rain,
Completing the water cycle once again.

If a man’s body has returned to dust,
It is his offspring that he leaves to us.
Another generation can then be found,
It’s the cycle of life spinning all around.

In the cycle of living
Do the best that you can.
Be a friend to all others,
Leave as a much better man!

The poem delivers a beautiful message in the last stanza. The cycle of life spinning all around has been shown in all aspects. Scientific facts and human pacts between generations have been neatly explained. A well written poem!
