WILL I REMEMBER

 

I stand in the shadows as it rains,

   And the dark clouds pass on by –

December is going with a smile,

   Now I wait for winter to cry!

 

The cornfields have turned brown,

   And all the ponds are frozen –

Again sweet December smiles,

   A month that winter has chosen!

 

In time the skies will surely clear,

   Soon January will sneak in –

Time has raced on by . . .  

   As a new year comes once again!

 

It’s the last day of December . . .

But yester – year will I remember?
