Year's End , 2012

A New Year is near.
All feels light, bright and clean.
No snow this New Year's,
Just lots of wholesome rain,
Washing away the last
Of 2012's aches, joys and pain.

The live Christmas tree is breathing
A sigh of relief, enjoying
a cool bath of December showers.
The glittering ornaments add sparkle to
The presents under the tree.

There are cookies, and brownies,
And sticky candy canes
Red and green candles,
And scents of cloves, turkey and yams.

Christmas is here,
And soon the New Year we will greet. 
The Christmas cards and pictures
All smiles on the living room dresser,
remind us of our common goals and dreams.

A New Year to embrace
All shiny and bright
Like our plans, talents and delights.

Trudi Ralston.
