Notes About The Poem

July 22, 2025, entered in Constance LaFrance's Three Options in I Contest

      *********************************************************************************

Interlude

Each year I spend a part of New Year’s Day
relaxing, still, in quiet solitude.
Reflecting on the past twelve months, I pray
for strength and wisdom for the brand-new year.
Included in my silent interlude
are pleas to face life's changes without fear.

I thank the Lord for blessings I've received,
including loved ones and all lessons learned.
Life is so good, and I've always believed
my blessings are far more than I have earned.
