I wrote this just now, to share, Have a safe and Happy New Year
Fulfilled
The air, it seems colder, bolder, in skies of winter grey
accepted this final day, one upon thousands before
yet stands alone, tired, aching... and old
it rises to memories of youth, one last time, as it must
blows past yesterday, with no style or grace
abruptly shoving and pushing, it cares little
no regard for the cries, joys, hurt or sorrow
of yesterday, or yesterdays long before
impossible to stop or even slow
not for one minute, nay even one flick
driving forward like a train at full coaled steam
Past the pathway, there along the river
just around the bend, you know the one
finally it slows, nearer still, just a few more ticks
it finds you, bushes softly upon your cheek
glances a last goodbye, tussles through your hair
suddenly its gone... another year has passed
