Fire and Rain

A new year Thoughts from the past Are blown away by the winter wind A "tabula rasa" to be filled in by actions and events of the days to come All the hopes we have Will be something we fervently pray come true Even as the stars begin to glow in the night The memory of this New Age will continue to reverberate in our souls Keep sending out your poetry, friends For out there in the darkness someone is listening to you Your message offers solace to unknown citizens Beyond the realm of the T.V. and radio There lies an ocean of poetry Poems take on life When they are transmitted from soul to soul Happy New Year!
