Fifty-Two4

December 28, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. This week’s theme is new beginnings, in honor of the New Year.

Today’s poem is a number poem for someone about to begin a new career.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Fifty-two is ready to begin,
Invested in a new and bright career.
Futures are incorrigibly uncertain,
Tending to inspire both hope and fear.
Yet she finds the wherewithal within.

There is neither lock nor code nor curtain
Where her source of strength has always been,
Open to whoever would come near.
