Fay Slimm - Closing My Year. - 08

Looking backside of an outgoing year,
Momentous events show destiny's
Face has bravely unfolded a brand new
And exciting rhythm for me. Clearly
Revealing fate, controlling, but dealing
No fear in her hand. Cards have fallen, too,
Unbidden, but grasped with wondrous delight,
In trust that what's glimpsed will reveal outright
A heartening end. Asking no questions,
I wait, eagerly taking what's boldly laid
As fateful command. This visionary sighting
Of New Year surprises needs a firm hold.

As the old relinquishes time, I sigh,
But with eyes wide open warmly embrace
The coming unseen and inspiring new.
Welcome, I seize it, as waving goodbye
To another year's closure, I wish for you
A happy 2009, yet still enticingly new.

To P.H. friends........
