Happy New Year 2024
A New Year Poem for 2024
A year went by
2023 was a mixed blight
of harsh and
happy reality
in the dim light
of a gloomy
bright loss of hope.
2023 brought
poets together
in a published book.
The Lark's passionate
poetry book, titled
Butterfly Dance
A great joy to be
remembered.
2023 saw the loss of
family members
whether unexpected
or in war
the suffering days
from illnesses
so profound.
We need to hope
for less drastic weather
and better times.
A need for strength
to live in harmony
for the year ahead.
May everyone stay positive
and wish for the gifts
of life, health, happiness
and fulfillment
for the forthcoming
year of 2024.
A need for prosperity
to guide us into 2024.
And hope to all
for a
prosperous new year.
Happy New Year's Eve
to all.
Enjoy the night
wherever you are.
Dance and have fun
and most of all
enjoy the fireworks
as the sparks brighten
the dark sky.
Happy New Year everyone!
