Shiny New 2023

 The sun sets

2022 

Disappears 

A sweet farewell

To an old friend

Thanking them

For all they have given

All they have taken

All they have shown

Then

A welcome

Shy for some

Exuberant for others

To this shiny new friend

2023

Sparkly and Alive

Somewhat intimidating

The phrase "Moving Forward Fearlessly"*

Spiralling through 

The intentions

The hopes

The dreams

To land 

In the Heart

With gratefulness

I receive

Arms wide-open

I say

YES

To This

As It Is

This shiny new moment

This shiny new day

This shiny new year

2023!

May this new friend be abundant

 In blessings, health, happiness, peace and love for 

ALL!
