happy new year


i cast these words here for you

with rhythm, tone, and rhyme

as if my net tossed on the sea

snares phrases for all time


another trip around the sun

another year has passed

the seasons fly at lightening speed

and cannot be recast


yet on you sail your ship from ports

to destinations unbeknown

through waters calm and gales to come

too many times alone


each new year calls to celebrate

in poem, song, and lyric

the love you gave, the love you shared

the joy found in your spirit
