Is a point in time that is very reflective
Makes one wonder of things gone by
And how they could have been better
But forgetting that they could have been worse too
Its a time to recollect the things
You thought you 'd do, but never did
People you thought you'd meet, but never did
Fences you thought you'd mend, but never did
Hopes you thought would fruition, but never did
What about the other things that did happen
People you never thought you'd meet , but you did
New things achieved that was never on the cards
Bridges that were built that were never conceived
The new strength that you found when hopes were dashed
What's a year but 365 days completed, and more ahead
That's true of any day in the calendar
Still, in this day and age of fast paced action
Its as good a time as any to pause and reflect
On what has gone, and what is still to come...
