Late Night Movie

In the silence of December
When the cold slows the heartbeat of the world
Just long enough for it to see its own breath
We finally reflect on all the things
That have passed over, under, and through.
In the lateness of the year
Our minds roll back the film
Rewinding and reminding us
Of the slights, fights, and saving graces -
Scenes with those both here and gone.
It is in these quiet moments
Somewhere between our cold, dark finale
And a hopeful, new beginning
We wait, and wonder,
What dreams are yet to come?
