January 1st,
a crescent moon
The past crossed over,
the future looms
A New Year dawns,
as daylight breaks
With wishes fresh,
new oaths to take
Feeling lighter,
old burdens gone
New lyrics written,
a familiar song
The year to bring,
what fates allow
As wonder ages,
—in this moment now

Thanks, Tony!
Welcome
Holy Jesus. I can't believe it. This brings tears to my eyes. I walked outside earlier this evening to see a beautiful crescent moon with a huge bright Venus below. And now this. I am lost for words. This is so beautiful and fitting to what fate has in store for me.
I'm praying hard! It was my honor.
Kurt
