Jan 1st 2017

Will the new year bring in
new dreams and new hopes
as bright as the Christmas tree
to lighten the weary souls
as deep as thousands of incarnations old?

The memories of 2016
are now merely patches or spots
in the infinite timeline
however beautiful they were
or painful as they made you endure

The enlightened voice is still calling out
from over two thousand years past
I listened and liberated myself
to become as light as a snowflake twirling in the air

Let’s empty 2016
And paint 2017 with the brightest color
you could ever visualize
And welcome the new year as it’s rolled in.

Happy New Year!
