while looking out

as i breathe into the freshly air
so given cold
while looking out to snowy shadows
of myself an inner peace
into a whispering of voices spoken
of a quiet time another day

........it is Winter here......

yet i am greeted
to the gratefulness of birds
to the feeding on my patio......
they visit us daily
it is the last day of the coming year
to a thought
as we all think and cherish time given 
forward into our precious life

........... the New......
