A year has come and gone

Within it - were many songs
Some spoke of love mature
Others dealt with tasks unsure

Much of it was quite uplifting
Some even laid underpinning
And helped in very many ways
To open eyes wide on other days

So much of it filled with wonder
Even though others bowled under
Reflections of everyday meetings
People with happy/sad greetings

All of it was direct from interaction
With other personas - some in traction
Who were being pulled apart in two
By exchanges which made them blue

And this caused them to turn against
The very person who had no angst
But who absorbed their pain deeply
And felt it all, and most not sweetly

But during a time when away from it
A new wave of beauty and good spirit
Emerged from deep within this soul
And a subsequent return gave it all

Some grasped and used it quite well
Others continued their paths not swell
And their drums will continue to rattle
For peace within is not in their mettle

No matter, hope is they will find it in time
Before they must answer for their crimes
If they do not - then torment will accrue
Payback for all the times they've made
... others - so very blue ....
