Around the Corner

Post by Ann Bingham » September 17th, 2017, 1:24 pm

AROUND THE CORNER

Whether silently, or with a big bang
Looking back briefly, or ahead for a fleeting moment
Reflecting on the past, hopeful for the future
Standing on the edge of two years
Holding on to one, while grasping for the other
The hands of time always forward, memories ever backward
Regrets and triumphs, endings and new beginnings
Here’s to. . .
Hopes fulfilled, dreams to reality
Good health, and prosperity
To the future. . .
When nothing is promised
Except the unexpected
There are no bargains for sale.

if it wasn't for wondering what's around the the corner, ..the next bend,... man would sit and twiddle his thumbs...content that this is all there is...but .... 8)
