Blessed be the sadhappy walk in the rain
to the end of the pier and back again.
Praise be to friends, new-leafed and old
and those who’ve let go their hold.
Hail to the painstaking
good, slow, awkward work of lovemaking
that is never done.
Hallelujah what is hard or easily won.
A Soft Day from Airborne
Happy Newish Year and whatever you're having yourself.
