Old Year New Year

OLD YEAR NEW YEAR



Tunnel of time past
Into the future coils
As ribbons of events unwind
In my mind’s eye
Ritual of New Year
Remembrance of history
Now woven tapestry
Of our lives
Such sweet-sour memories
Trod them not underfoot
Ahead lies
The new path
Build it not with old stones
Fire new bricks
Which interlock
Into a smooth road
For all who walk
Into your life
Follow your star
Through life’s night
Into the dawn
Of a new beginning
Shining sun of a better day
This New Year.                       Thomas L. Segerson 31 December 2016 1100hrs.
