The Measure of a Single Year

The making
of a single year
these days,
means nothing ..
No matter
how measured
or filled ..
Nor whether
by heartbeats,
by breaths,
or by tears
or individual
fallen leaves ..
The length
of a single year
these days
means nothing ..

your poem calls me to action,Β to soon grab a glass, a bottle, 2 fingers of scotch and place to sit or stand alone or with a good friend in silence or in conversation
