New Beginning

Year 2022 has come and gone
Annus horribilis some say it was
A beautiful year yet for others
But that year is now history 

The new year is here!
Embrace and savor it 
New opportunities stare you in the face
Seize them while it is still day

The new year is what you make of it
Do not cling on the events of the past 
For today is opportunity 
And tomorrow a mystery 
 

God the creator of the universe 
Thank you for the breath of life
That keeps hope alive!
Let this year be good!
