Goodbye 2017

New Year's Eve shall come and go, a new year shall begin without warning- may the dreary Winter release her woe, and wake up to a beautiful morning. Full of dreams like a innocent child, remembrances of yesterdays gone by- the birth of the Savior, so meek and so mild, has come to light and to another year, goodbye. Tomorrow shall begin delicate days, full of new beginnings and sincerity- for peace on earth I shall always pray, may this world be full of love and clarity. I guess I have but one regret, it is that I didn't live life as I planned- but all the lessons learned I shan't forget, for only my soul can understand. Let go of all pain and fear not, peace may come with ease- may showers of love be brought, and all pain and suffering cease. December 28th, 2017
