It’s time
to wait and look back
Into the
quick year that rolled by;
It’s time
to await and look ahead
Into the brief time that is now nigh...
Certainly,
It’s time
to remember and say thanks
To all those who
stood by my side
With
Empathy and Concern –
Empathy,
which was genuine, deliberate,
True, without
any attached ‘but or so’,
With
Concern, that I so much sought,
Shown even if I
did not deserve though.
And,
It’s a time
to honor and give thanks
Unto Him
who scripted these times
Of
Courage and Conviction –
Yes, of huge
Courage, which consciously
Comforted
me as I drank the sorrows away;
Of
Conviction, that assured me relentlessly
Echoing that 'goodness will make the way'.
Needless
to say,
On this
last day,
At an
hour past two,
It’s hard
to doze off to
Sleep in a place
such as this,
A place
that I will fondly miss…
