| Starry Night, Vincent van Gogh |
December swept in to close the parting year
With a frigid Arctic blast, snow was in the rear
Powder puff flurries temporarily dusted the scene
Then spring-like weather made us giddy and beam
Yet brilliant stars illuminated the holiday streets
The Christmas tree at Rock made it all complete
And the Winter Solstice chimed in to celebrate
With joyful hymns and candles for nature's sake
Do not forget it is the end of remarkable decade
Recall sweet memories, dear ones, before they fade
Christmas concerts set the joyous holiday mood
O Holy Night, Silent Night so familiar did soothe
Folks wondered how the year had gone by in a silent poof
Left us dazed and betrayed by precious time is the proof
Starry night, night of wonder we sent songs of love away
To tame a hardened heart far and wide on Christmas Day
Oh why must you depart and close out this end of year
We had so much more to do, to savor you my dearest dear
There was no holding back the time and the clock was ticking
Away the final hours came, and Auld Lang Syne was tweeting
December bowed out with amazing grace and let in a New Year!
Where "Dreams Do Come True," for a grateful heart sincere..
