Something New

Often we yearn to leave the city's pavements behind,

To go where calm is deeper,

Where we will be loved more.

We will delight in the metaphors of fallen leaves,

Feel our bodies warmer,

For the New Year, we'll take out delicate champagne glasses,

And say that the pain the old year left us means nothing.

So, the twigs of those branches have returned; clasping a quill - to write again..!

I used to live in London, so I should know the pitfalls of city life. Indeed, it's often said that such cities have a culture of anonymity. That's because, so many are trapped inside; the narrow confines of their own lives. And, crowds are known; to even make some people feel lonely.

So yes, it's lovely to embrace plenty of time; away from the urban sprawl of conformity and cold impersonal contact between people.

And, welcome in the New Year! Whilst we toast the starting of a new year, let us indeed; leave behind the pains and disappointments of 2024. 2025 beckons..!
