Let the games begin

A lovely start to the new year today:
I like the way the words blend on your page;
When seas turn rough, you have to hope and pray
This music always helps me to engage;

Though dressed in black, you really do impress:
Let the moon glow inside, it won't obscure
Torrential rain, less puissant than life's mess;
The bridges swept away will still endure;

This love is strong: it wakes me - such delight
I'd seek your dark and help it to return,
Embedded in a mountain, verse requites
Convincing all of us: that way we learn
To be both all and nought: perception marks
Let the new year ensure our new game starts...
