New Year

New Year
We have this day before us
and what is more holy
than a new beginning?
It is the only time
our future is more
powerful than our past.
It is the only time our intention
can overcome our trends.
With this kiss of midnight,
a new era is bestowed.
Dig deep.
Grasp what is dearest to you.
Pull and cradle it forth.
Hold it high
to the light
to grow.
