New Year 2018 Thriving
So, here we are again
standing at the gates of time
wondering how, why, where and when
the old clock ticked by without a chime.
Three hundred and sixty five
danced as if to last forever
but the seconds and minutes are alive
as days are weeks and months untethered.
Another year slips by
more easily than each day of laughter
while the joy and tears both, make us cry
and life moves on with little to no happily ever after.
So, for the New Year 2018 arriving
greet the hour and its promises in hand
with open arms and sincere striving
to make democracy and freedom law of the land.
