The Loop Without vision or reason, it’s easy to point to fate, there is no real clarity — why I circle you. Others come, pass into sepia memory; a chain, a tender shackle, brings me back to you. Another cycle, we spin, ignoring sizeable snags, oblivious to the trouble the loop might bring. We hold this orb up, turn it with moist palms as if a prize waits inside, coming round to claim us. © 2002 Corinne Bailey [This message has been edited by Corinne (08-02-2002 07:42 PM).] |

(big hugggsssssss) Yay, oh Corinne, lately I have felt a great sense of gravity and down-to-earthness in your wonderful poems packed with true wisdom and heart, I love it! Yes, when it feels like something is hopeless and it never stops revolving around us, joy is inevitable and will come to us as we keep spinning on the axis of life, sweet friend, this is wonderful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Corinne, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

"a tender shackle" My favorite line. Stunning! A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |
