New Year’s Reflections
In New York City people crowdTo watch the lighted ball descendThey count the seconds all as oneTo mark another yearly end
As people cheer and dance aboutWe all reflect on what has passedWhat has gone on in daily livesAround this planet wide and vast
The miracles both great and smallNew friendships made and old ones keptThe loved ones gone and still aroundJoyous laughter, sadness wept
The little things that brought a smileThe great events in distant landsSmall victories both won and lostThe kisses, hugs and holding hands
Another year has come and goneAnother Auld Lang Syne is sungThe ball descends, the clock chimes 12A brand new year has now begun
