WINTER SOLSTICE 2019
The City is so still tonight…
My friendships’ footsteps fade
Into the realm of history
Of all the dreams we’ve made
While walking on this storied way
Replacing footprints tread--
Pedestrians from yesterday--
We’re welcomed in their stead
By ancients traveled here before
Our measurement of Time,
A Winter song it went unsung
For lack of words that rhyme--
A memory, a savoring
In bleak midwinter, echoing.
