Poetry

Last day

Of the year and

My emotions are all over the place.

This year has been challenging and a little rough.

But it has also brought me so much joy and growth.

New opportunity to soar in love and friendships.

I honestly can say this year ends to end but saying goodbye will be bittersweet.

So as the hours slowly go by and hope that next year will be a little better is what everyone wants.

But the truth is only God knows what is to come, and I’m trusting in him that whatever happens.

It’s him. As 2020 becomes the past, he will always move on with me as 2021 will be brighter.

Even as life here on Earth becomes darker and sometimes so unknown.

Faith will get me through it as it did this year.

In A

small town lived people who have dreams and desires

like everyone else in bigger or smaller towns.

But in this town there was no strangers but family and more family.

They supported each other no matter what was going on and they light up the town every winter in hopes to draw someone new in.

For once you visited this town, you never seemed to want to leave and even if you do you don’t stay away for long.

Poetry

Just

needed a moment by myself

just to enjoy a little meal.

To get lost in my thoughts as this year is almost over

and to reflect on the things that have happened and how much I have grown.

This year has been tough and yet I got through it and will continue to grow

as new things come in next year.
