new year doorway

Poem #25 from a second series of meditations titled: the Pilgrim (2)

Back to the Pilgrim – Introduction

---

what is the significance
pilgrim
of a year ending

if a year
is simply a circling around the sun
how is that of relevance
to you

is yours
a celestial journey
transported by a turning earth
through the doorway to astral planes

or does the calendar
simply mark your return
to an arbitrary beginning point
as a preface
to commencing the voyage
again
