New Year - A Hope

Chime of the midnight clock

Happiness all around

The air reverberates

With cheer and hope


Hope for a better tomorrow

Prayers for a peaceful future

Wishes for prosperity and good health

Resound with renewed fervour


Anticipation all around

Optimism at its peak

Lessons from past mistakes

A beacon in the sea


Dare I hope

With the history behind us

History of mistakes

Retold time and again


But hope keeps us going

We all know

So keep the despair aside

And step into a new day

With renewed dreams and aspiration.


Happy New Year to All My Friends :)
