About This Poem
A New Years Promise
A new sunrise, a new beginning
Now, is the time to keep the promises
Everything in my life changing
Weakness withers as courage rises
Years, months, days of endless crying
Each glistening tear fades
A queer feeling
Relax, Lord, my weary muscles
Stop the wind and the roaring
Past the safety of lies
Rocking, soothed in storytelling
O, mere scraps, odds and ends of fantasies
Misty, pieces of truth, falling
I, the weaving spider cries
Stop, time to start the living
End the weeping before life fades
