Dancing Into the Unknown

The old year fades, its echoes drifting light, 
A newborn spark ignites the midnight sky. 
We laugh, we drink, we dance into the night,
A fleeting wish, a dream that longs to fly.
Resolutions sworn in candle’s sight,
Yet whispered vows may fade as days go by.
But in this hour, with hope and love we glow, 
The past behind, the future yet to show.

Thank you, J.A.B.--your words are always a light of their own. I love that you felt the weight of that moment… "a leap of light" sounds like the very first step into destiny. May all our resolutions burn with purpose in the candle’s sight. With gratitude, --Alesia
