giddy with fever
dull of breath
listening for the new
year
i practice one small step
clarity falls within the fire
logs burn through split
in a tumult of embers
the new year awakens
ventures out from black
ash
giddy with fever
dull of breath

You've captured this transitional time very well Sue. I enjoyed this.
All the best, G
Great New Year's banner! Enjoyed.
I love the imagery in these lines:
logs burn through split
in a tumult of embers
the new year awakens
ventures out from black ash
Vivid.
I love your one small step, and how it all just keeps on, eh? Happy New Year!
Burnt logs splitting is a great image!
oh, great imagery - I was there!
Vivid imagery and I like the reflexive on the ending,
Elizabeth
I like what you did!
Thank you for your visit.
I can see the fire grow, flames dance and embers fade. I enjoy watching flames.
Happy New Year!
Love how you return to repeat the first two lines, Susan. Nice poem.
