There is no beginning, there is no ending, there is only existance.
that which is unknown
that which cannot be known
gathered up the ends of eternity
binding the path of spirituality
with the undulations of time
capturing its changing movement
gathered it all together
interweaving with serenity
into the endless knot of infinity
the knot had no beginning
nor did it have an ending
there laid it upon the divine
that which is infinite wisdom
became the matter of creation
in the emptiness of existence
began the endless cycle
suffering birth death re-birth
inseparable from its ritual of being
that became compassion
giving light and meaning to the void

My take on this prompt had some of the same concepts you present here. I enjoyed reading yours! The Celtic knot is a good choice for this one. Here is my response to this prompt:

A poem that addresses the emptiness of existence and the endless cycle of birth and death as spiritual truth and symbolised by the mystic knot. Well done, Donald!
