Looking backside of an outgoing year, <br />Momentous events show destiny's <br />Face has bravely unfolded a brand new <br />And exciting rhythm for me. Clearly <br />Revealing fate, controlling, but dealing <br />No fear in her hand. Cards have fallen, too, <br />Unbidden, but grasped with wondrous delight, <br />In trust that what's glimpsed will reveal outright <br />A heartening end. Asking no questions, <br />I wait, eagerly taking what's boldly laid <br />As fateful command. This visionary sighting <br />Of New Year surprises needs a firm hold. <br /> <br />As the old relinquishes time, I sigh, <br />But with eyes wide open warmly embrace <br />The coming unseen and inspiring new. <br />Welcome, I seize it, as waving goodbye <br />To another year's closure, I wish for you <br />A happy 2009, yet still enticingly new. <br /> <br />To P.H. friends........<br /><br />Fay Slimm<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/closing-my-year-08/
