“Janus” appears in my collection “More Poetic Meanderings”, which was published in 2023:
Janus waits in the wings.
As with previous dead years
He will bring
Laughter and tears.
Doors open and close.
The futurologist thinks he knows
What the future holds.
But Janus thumbs his nose,
And history goes
On as before;
And where it goes
Heaven only knows.
love it and a happy new year to you!
Thank you Beth for the new year wishes, and I hope that 2024 is a great year for you also. Thanks also for liking my poem, I’m delighted you like it.
