Free Verse; As the New Year dawns. . .
Renewal
by Mrs. KT
<<<~~~>>>
A New Year beckons: Words not yet spoken Paths not yet taken Hopes not yet dreamed Silently encroaching, Pulsating at the edge of memory: Words - betrayed Paths - encumbered Hopes - dashed Fragments of moments lost By conversations stilled Malignantly weave Their tapestry of remembrance: Words - angrily dismissed Paths - impetuously closed Hopes - deliberately destroyed As the New Year breaks Upon a pristine landscape of Sparkling, newly fallen silent snow, The past surreptitiously makes Its presence known: Taunting Threatening Terrorizing On this glistening first dawn Of potentialities and new beginnings, Only a fool would stay Manacled to the past Only a fool would fear What this day brings Only a fool would miss This opportunity to renew A New Year beckons: Words not yet spoken Paths not yet taken Hopes not yet dreamed I bid the New Year, "Welcome," And on bended knees, I most reverently pray To God Almighty That the anticipated days ahead Will not find me a Fool. . . once again. . . <<<~~~>>> |
