December


December
December, known as
last month of our year,
brings happiness to 
celebration, cheer.
Soon January will 
begin, appear 
with new beginnings
wipe the old year clear.

A time to tally up 
the happy, sad 
those prior months, 
before December had.
Months, torn away 
from calendars like mad,
now gone; new year 
awaits its launching pad.

December closes 
circle of year's time
the ending of beginning, 
now pastime.
Completion of December 
is the sign
A brand new year 
will enter our lifetime.
