Forever a New Year

The winter winds blows by
As if to kiss my cheek
A smell of frost ,now fills the air
The trees are waving like they're saying
"Goodbye this year"

On this porch I sit
And watched this year go by
My memory, is not so clear
What have I gained or had I lost
Throughout this year

I'll live each day, 
As if it is a year long
For each year, seems like a day
The present is forever fleeing
And a new year on it's way

Every new becomes old and passes by, so the present is forever fleeing and a new year on it's way. Beautifully penned. Loved always, my lovely poet friend,bl

Oh Jerry, I'm freezing and frightened to death that it really is on the way. A great write to make me feel this way.
