Windmills of Your Mind!

` Wheel within a wheel` .......

This comes from a favourite song of mine by a British singer, Dusty Springfield. As I
wrote the post it came to me...actually the whole song is very
profound, so I will post the lyrics! Worth thinking about the words!

It comes from a movie, `The Thomas Crown Affair`.the old version..one
of my favourite movies with Steve McQueen. I just love the old movies.

``The Windmills of Your Mind``

Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel,
Never ending or beginning like
On an ever -spinning reel
Like a snowball down a mountain,
Or a carnival balloon
Like carousel that`s turning
Running rings around the moon

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes on it`s face,
And the world is like an apple
Spinning silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind!

Like a tunnel that you follow
To a tunnel of it`s own
Down a hollow to a cavern
Where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Like the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream.


Keys that jingle in you pocket
Words that jingle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly?
Was it something that I said?
Lovers walk along a shore
Ad leave their footprints in the sand
Was the sound of distant drumming
Just the fingers of your hand?

Pictures hanging in a hallway
Or the fragment of a song
Half remembering names and faces
But to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over
Were you suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves are turning
To the colour of her hair?

Like a circle in a spiral,
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever spinning reel
AS the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your Mind.

love & light...,
