Circles Of Love

Love is at the center

Of every circle

Love is a gentle unfolding

Of feelings

Of thoughts

Of knowing

Love is round

It goes in a circle

Starting at the center

With self

And self love

The circle widens and expands

As the love

Radiates outward

And grows and grows

The more one loves

The greater the circle grows

The capacity of love is endless

The size of the circle unlimited

The circles of love

Intercept and meet

At different times

And in different places

Within the circle

The more circles there are

The more there is love

Yet always at each center

There is self love

Sometimes the circles

Are very small

And hardly apparent

Due to the lack of self love

Other circles are so vast

And meet with many circles

Of different sizes

The greater the love of self

The greater the power

To spread the love

To share the love

And in turn to feel the love returned

Imagine all the circles

Of love

Waiting to be shared

It all starts with self love

At the center

Then spreads out

Casting a wider rim

The more one loves

The greater the circle grows

And so it perpetuates itself

Growing and growing

As more love

Enters the circle

A mother with a newborn

Shows how the circle grows

The newborn gives love

And the love is returned

And so develops

A mother’s love

Growing and growing

As the love develops

Love is never static

It is in constant flow

There is an elasticity

A flexibility

Pulling this way and

Then the other way

Love has the capacity

To expand in an

Unlimited way

But on the flip side

Love has the ability

To constrict

To retract

To tighten

Forcing the circles to diminish

To shrink

And sometimes cease to be

So circles of love

Meet and intercept

And love is shared

Sometimes the meeting

Of the circles takes place

Within different parts of the circle

And the place of meeting

Is not the same

And so people have

Different expectations

Of the love

They are receiving

And of the love

They are giving

It all depends

On where in each circle

The other circle meets

The nearer to the center

The closer the connection

Yet one circle can meet

Close to one circle

Yet be at the perimeter

Of another circle

Leading to unrequited love

So where the circles meet

Determines the love

That will develop

And whether the love will grow

Love is never static

The circles move and grow

Each person’s circle

Moving individually

Yet together with

All the other circles

So the circles change

And the loves within

The circle

Adapt and flow

With the changes

Leading to different

Feelings of love

And determining

Whether the love will grow

Or the love will restrict

Love is always a circle

With you at the center

It all begins with you

Loving yourself first

And then radiating

The love outwards

Love is a circle

Love is a chain of circles.

Love is round
