Here Comes 2023
My Last Vocal Story ...... For 2022
Introduction
I am writing a fiction which I haven't a clue what is happening and then was in a long lovely conversation with Misty Rae while creating the January 2023 Threads in Vocal+Assist and moving the December Threads to Guides so I have thirty minutes to write a poem for the end of the year.
The music has to be (once more) "Countdown (Things About To Turn Around)" by Lindsey Buckingham (and no, I would not consider "The Final Countdown" by Europe which is very silly poodle rock.

Snow Need to Rush
I watched my breath form a small white cloud as it puffed out of my lips and dissipated before my eyes. I rubbed my hands together, blowing into them with the precious bit of warm air that remained in my lungs. My leg bounced as I stared into the cold dark world beyond the windows of my truck as they remained partially fogged up.

I love the music video you feature here with Lindsey Buckingham! I admit, I had never heard his music before, but it was a real humdinger! The choreography of movements and background scenes made it captivating! Your poem is wonderful, too. Great job!
Very nice. Happy New Year.
I loved that. Happy New Year!
I love that you musically rang in the new year with a bang!!
A lovely poem welcoming the new year!
