As another year ends
the earth keeps turning
unmoved but moving
& I am thankful
for every light
for every night
and the flight of our hopes and smiles
as they open their wings
and rise and shine
The colours of our dreams and visions
turn from black and white to red yellow blue
and blur into motion
A sun rises yellow in the Southern East
behind the mountains of new beginnings
until clouds of infinite altitude turn
into eyes and dragons and other imaginaries
Shapes and visions - premonitions
new days soft moons and full circles
turn into stars or flowers or something unexpected
full of grace and beauty
chance and invention instead of duty
Like that clear evening full of light
of a year to come
or this year soon to be gone
another turn of this planet
moving unmoved
turning unturned
around sun
light without darkness
and only some clouds
to write a message
into hilly horizons
I love this life
on this earth
at this time
and thankfulness
gets the last rhyme
