Brenda Chiri Poet Rhyme

A New Year

In the liquid ebony stillness 
another year melts 
into the nights skies
The past year seems but
just an illusion now
When the universe smiles 
upon us as it once again sighs
Allowing old thoughts to 
become impressions reminiscent 
of past echoes replies
Holding onto hope of a 
possible brighter tomorrow 
to be realized
Another decade of lessons 
to experience while again 
awaiting for life to normalize
