I know it has been a long while since I\'ve posted, but here is a poem I wrote at the beginning of the year for New Year\'s Day. I hope you will enjoy it.
I wish you everything, my own beloved world
On this delightful New Year’s Day
I wish you everything my soul is too full of...
I wish you rays of pancake suns
To play hide and seek on snowflake lawns
I wish you rose-blue showers and spring hail
To drop down blessings and fervent prayers
For everything that’s dream-like, warm and kind
To enter our lives in record time
For love to triumph and to reign...
For gold-combed waves in champagne bursts
To bring home salty-salmon shells
For gurgling springs to quench the thirst
For echoes of blue Christmas bells
For everything and nothing...
For tight embraces and shining faces
For delightful gifts in lace-like wrappings
For distant ruby and sapphire stars
Falling bubble-like on hot soft palms
For cricket songs in tear-blanketed grass
I wish for views from bridges in latte fog
And cries of pilgrim seagulls on the sparkling foam
I wish you fair winds from east to north to west
For happiness and innocence to bless and warm
For love to surround you with wholehearted greetings
For echoing stillness and heavy thunder
For light and dark and the wonder in between
I wish for angels between earth and heaven
To comfort and rock you my beloved world
Support you in defeat and bless in glory
I wish for sunny places and spots of shade
For solitary walks and crowded rooms
For every feeling on life’s rainbow palette
For children’s laughter beneath smiling skies
This and so much more, beloved world
I wish you in the year to come
Bless you…
