Hey December is a poignant meditation on memory, homecoming, and the bittersweet passage of time, framed through the quiet reflections of the year's final month. This collection captures the essence of December—not just as a season, but as a metaphor for nostalgia, change, and the longing for something both familiar and fleeting.
Through evocative verses, the poems trace a journey from the innocence of childhood Decembers, where snowfall, traditions, and warmth filled the air, to the complexities of adulthood, where the past becomes a distant echo. As time carries us forward, away from familiar comforts and towards uncertain horizons, Hey December contemplates the meaning of home, the weight of distance, and the sacrifices made in pursuit of dreams.
More than a collection of seasonal musings, Hey December explores the transient nature of happiness, the search for belonging, and the quiet beauty of rediscovery. It is an introspective journey through time’s impermanence, offering a gentle reminder that even as the world changes, some things—memories, love, and longing—remain.
