Crossing the great divide

Crossing the great divide
Leaving behind the blue
Entering the yellow
The great elusive hue

Planting the flag firmly
Head up and shoulders back
Living Life in brightness
Until the final black

To hit it out of bounds

To hit it out of bounds

Ignoring the fine lines

Not racing for the lights

But for stars still unmined

Reaching past the artists

Nothing derivative

Something futuristic

But almost primitive

Deciding to move on

Deciding to move on

Entering the doorways

Allowing for change to

Change the now and always

Finding new directions

The arrival unknown

Not following patterns

As the moment gets sewn

Searching for the white clouds

Searching for the white clouds

Looking for the pristine

Or the bluest of skies

Or grass greener than green

Dancing to the silence

In the moment at last

Inhaling the future

And exhaling the past

No time and no deadline

No time and no deadline

The sunlight is setting

The evening is empty

The past, no regretting

Two souls slowly slipping

Into a quiet sleep

The world keeps on spinning

As the moon takes a leap

Distance is destructive

Distance is destructive

Horizon dividing

The stars may be common

With their light abiding

But the land is too wide

How the miles separate

Our strong magnetic pull

No longer permeates

Just another New Year

Just another New Year

New resolutions wait

For success or failure

Here at the starting gate

We try to shed the old

As if there’s a new page

But the page is not new

It just happens to age
