I want to write something
profound
WORDS to share
around
For you to wonder at
my wisdom
Ponder at my
imparting
New Years bring new
hopes, new dreams
And yet it seems
We are still mired
in the old
Can’t shake off the
cold
It’s crept into our
very bones
We shut the doors
and hibernate at home
I want to write
something hopeful
WORDS to cling to
Find a new tune to
sing to
But January is dark
navy blue
The colour of school
uniforms, night and deep space
Going on forever
Growing blacker
Drifting further
I need to write
something cheery
WORDS to impress
Like a new designer
dress
Perhaps overlooked
Often under-trodden
A light bright gift
of hope – an epiphany
If you know where to
look.
