A New Year’s Poem

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when published

March on—
Crunching the dead fir’s limbs
Stomping the stubborn icy crusts.
Bindle over shoulder
Sun fades into the night
Twilight beckons starlight
Breath ascends the starry sky.

Carry everything:
Your broods and your frown,
Your joy and your dimples,
Your sorrow and your tears,
Your fears and your silence.
To sever the pieces
Is to reject the whole.

Do not despair
In the death of the night.
No light to guide,
Heartbeat in arrhythmia,
Smothering solitude.
Darkness comes
Yet also departs.

Step by step,
Run towards dawn
Your feet as hooves
Of a restless stallion
swimming in the wind.
Horizon reveals itself–
A new day begins.

Favorite Foticos

First row (left to right): A sunset over Lake Washington in Kirkland, a scene of gondolas and skiers under in Whistler B.C, a picture of a dock in Kirkland in a sunny day. Second row: A picture of cherry blossoms against a clear blue sky in Seattle, a picture of a sunset and a crowded beach in Tamarindo Costa Rica, a photo of an old street in Kyoto during sunset. Third row: A picture of a grandma on a step-ladder flowering pink roses in her window sill in Brugge, a picture of the outdoor thermal baths in Hungary full of people, a picture of people walking by a Japanese restaurant with a large crab statue in its awning. — My favorite photos taken this year
