As the old year turns to flame


Watching anxiously 
As the old year slowly turns to flame, 
We know that we’ll be glad to leave 
This one behind, and yet winter still looms 
With its own threat of further deprivations. 
We hope this time of separations burns 
Important learnings on our hearts, 
But can we trust Spring to return? 
Will there still be new leaves we might turn over?
