A New Year Has Come

Snows are pouring,

Sky is turning to grey,

Everywhere, clouds are covering,

Will we have a good sunny May?

 

Wars have crumbled the world,

Could Hopes and Wishes act as Excalibur?

Can we alter wrongs to right with this Sword?

The New Year’s promises seem a fragile cure.

 

People search for homeland of peace,

Will be there a place to include all?

Prosperity and happiness are at risk,

Humanity is at the threshold of fall.

 

We seek a new beginning each year,

Facing hardships, uncertainty, ambiguity,

Having a firm aim to use Excalibur with care,

Defeating doubts and difficulties with clarity.

 

As Snow covers roofs, streets and trees,

Nature attempts to survive in its sleep,

A new year arrives with freeze yet try to seize,

A novel quest for us to reap,

Let the snow breeze, we have a journey to keep.
