New Year!
And comes the end of another year, in its sophistication
In its incarnation, in its reverberation
In its silent accord and louder blows
To those lost flames and one that still glows
There will be another, there will be anew
A chapter once more and hope galore
Bid adieu for it being so true, for it
Showed us that mirror, shook us to the core (could it?)
For all those dying, for those being killed
For many other hungry, for millions deprived
Deceived and lied, raped and cried
Humanity on trial, and desire of no more to abide
To those lost ones, to bonds severed few
To those faded memory, and made some new
Dusts of past on canvas, future hidden beneath
Let’s wipe it once again, and shine on our view
Stand afresh, stand all together
Hold each other, sing to life and love
One chance more to think, a chance again to act
Raise a toast to New Year with promises intact.
There will be another, there will be anew…
