Once you could go out the door
And never ever lock it

But still so many struggled
To buy food...

The embers glow mysteriously as the breezes pass
In Whitby where the terraced houses fell on mass

And as they sit and talk an old legend is reborn.

As the moon softly rises and tempts the stars
Into the quiet revelations, admissions
Grace, splendor, magnificence…
Painting the dreams with a quivering ink,
Spilled upon the emptiness beneath the still, white page,

New year in late January,
Oozing days forfeit;
Scent of the times!
