barefoot through revolving petals passages folding into passages every wrong turn another color every doorway another life circling spiraling never standing still somewhere between beginning and forever the center follows us
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
Polly finds a thousand doorways Violet follows one disappearing sunshine through the lattice moonlight bending round the years two silhouettes in shifting hues laughter where the pathways meet corridors opening outward new blossoms beneath their feet
petals holding forgotten summers others shelter unnamed fears some unfurl into tomorrow others bring us back to here nothing lost within the pattern every ending leaves a seed every seed another beginning every blossom possibility
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
beneath their feet pigments multiply amber corridors flowering gardens labyrinth walls unfurling petals every winding passage breathing Polly spinning beneath painted heavens Violet gathering stray constellations two wild hearts inside one flower unfolding beyond imagination
roads never traveled lives never known every choice a different blossom every dream another seed sown looking back across the labyrinth nothing quite what it seemed every wrong turn led somewhere every somewhere changed the dream
now the flower fills the heavens every petal another sky Polly laughing through the sunshine Violet dancing through the night no final doorway no last horizon no single answer waiting there another lotus opening another lifetime everywhere
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
mandala open another petal Polly and Violet another way to go every step a little further every turn another world mandala beautiful unfolding everything we've yet to know life inside a lotus and the lotus still grows
