Poem: New Year

In this New Year,

you might contemplate

the source of all beginnings

and the beginning of all sources,

of your essence, in the dark

just like in the womb.

Your body replete with an end

to uncertainty and the uncertainty

of the end.

You might ask, "What does life want

from me?". To care for a loved one,

or engage in creative pursuits.

To be in service of others. Only

you know. Only you can

do it. You are

one of a kind. A special

star, made of unique air,

earth, fire, and

water, leaving a

river path that glows.
