The Final Days

2020

The final days of December dawn
2019

Called in the time
Hurried us towards the finish line
When we wanted to linger cling on
To Life in all its imperfect forms

Dark December days at last
Give way slowly to January light
Stretched further to lighten the dark
The light at tunnel end not yet in sight
But Hope eternal will survive

When one door closes
Open your eyes
Open your heart
To the open threshold yet to come
