This Was The Year That Was

Well, where have all the years gone?
especially this year has been so quick
for it led to this being my 70th year
makes one think how its been so slick

My poetry this year was a real challenge
having not been so good at rhyme
considered to have a long break
but felt wasn't the right time

All these years I've been writing
wondering if it could last
for one day it would just end
thinking my dye had been cast

But I've still got my pen in hand
trusting my grey cells to communicate
keeping my pen flowing
hope others find my open gate

Now the years have nearly gone
remind myself to be thankful because
destiny will find a way through
for this was the year that was!

(THis is my personal review of 2023)
