Dear January,
I’m glad you’re here,
Unveiling the pristine path of a new year,
mantled in misty unknown
but beckoning with possibility.
Allowing me deep breaths and still moments,
to say that was then
and this is now
and there ahead lies what can be.
Bringing days, that, in their often bleakness,
inspire resolve to journey onward,
bright with newness.

Dear January,
I’m glad you’re here.
I have great plans for us.

Dear January: You have been full of surprises so far. Keep it up! (I'm referring to the weather).
Yesterday it was warm and sunny. Pretty soon I think it will be snowy and our landscape will resemble your gorgeous photo. I almost feel like we're getting short-changed…
