Is It a Gift of the New Year
clears the landscape         out of the blue          makes room for itself 
touches my face      and asks to come under the covers      snuggles into the warmth
acts like it belongs           upon waking             there it is again
all new and shiny            slip it into my pocket           take it with me
later                                 upon examination                i ask myself
how will i use it      does it color all that came before          does it open new worlds
perhaps a gift of the imagination     a new direction             will it become a part of me
as new thoughts often do       new thoughts in a new year     nothing to be ignored
