Understanding the world – bit by bit!

 

The year is gone, another cycle of seasons done

Snow on the ground, and another lot of bills undone

Do we look forward to the coming year, another glorious unknown,

Or cower – driven by thoughts of more work into the corner, woebegone?

 

Many cycles gone, some of the lessons I have learnt,

Teach me to put this into the frame of experience current

This world, this life, is not a power spent,

But a surging wave, resurgent from each pushback, a new agent!

 

So as we start this holiday season, I wish all a time wonderful,

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Grand New Year, of cheer so full,

A time with hearts filled with pleasure and love blissful

Young and old, all with hands and minds joined in prayer of thanks soulful !!
