Finis Anni

Drifting in that place of quiet thought,

I contemplate the year 

all that materialized, 

all that disolved, 

and all that is yet to come, 

Somberly remembering 

the delicate promises of a heart betrayed 

there is strength from the pain 

Wave upon wave of emotional deluge 

drowning the soul 

in tears wept bitterly 

dizzy from the heights of passion's sumit 

of heavens promised ascension 

Stumbling and drunk on Spirit's of uncertainty 

rumaging my spirit for the truth 

of what it means "To be" 

but never a question of "Not to be" 

When soul searching 

I found only more locked doors 

when looking in truth's mirror 

I hated what I saw 

in revelations light 

the darkness fled 

There has been hurt 

There has been healing 

There has been joy 

There has been sorrow 

yet in all this I am here 

at years end I am standing 

I look into future's horizon  

I can say it is bright 

I look forward to all the riches that await.....
