Day Trip

Today is New Year’s Eve, to me.
That’s all that a birthday need be.

This is a day for counting years.
It’s a day to address time’s fears.

A day for one to look behind.
It’s future’s door, don’t greet it blind.

So, I’m my own Janus this day.
Live now, while mind’s eye looks each way.

I make a plan against age to fend.
Then, auld lang syne’s just checking in.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
