Twenty, Twenty Four
The Year of the Dragon

Rich memories kept, from woes I will run.
Ashes to dust, I relinquish the past.
Twenty, twenty four a new life begun.
🐲
Tethered, manacled, my heart rendered numb.
Not one or two, numberless years amassed.
Rich memories kept, from woes I will run.
🐲
New dreams, bright hopes, dawn with the rising sun,
embracing new life, each breath unsurpassed.
Twenty, twenty four. A new life begun.
🐲
By bread alone and emotional crumbs,
my world is dying, entombed, and wormcast.
Rich memories kept, from woes I will run.
🐲
L’Chaim, to life, engage and become
completely transformed for troubles have passed.
Twenty, twenty four. A new life begun.
🐲
Resolved, this Year the Dragon will come.
A chance to seize life, courageous and jazzed.
Rich memories kept, from woes I will run.
Twenty, twenty four. A new life begun.
