As the year draws to a close
Which had more than its share of blows
There were events which were good and bad
Some made us happy, others very sad
Yet again time has gone flying by
Neither you noticed it, nor did I

And as a new year starts
With aspirations in our hearts
Let us pray and hope
For without it, we don’t have any scope
Wish it will be a year of peace
And all evil shall cease

Surely there will be a lot of change
Both usual and strange
What is to come, no one has a clue
But the birds will sing and the skies will be blue
To all my friends old and new
Wishing a happy new year to all of you

Abhi.
