New Year

Bye bye old year; Welcome New year So goes the saying every year But, what remains, adding and deducting years Earth says, no math please my dear For your convenience, it is plus-minus of numbers Who is getting older, you or I, my dear It is timelessness that matters To which I belong from time immemorial Standing as majestic as ever So what, we are short-lived Moment of happiness matters Let us have fun in short span When the New year is round the corner Mother Earth, Mother Earth, be kind enough When we celebrate New year in your lap We are your children wishing to mend heart Which is a priority in our resolution chart Let good sense and sanity prevail Let prosperity prosper everywhere Let wounds and scars of earth be healed With good thoughts, good deeds and good wishes Let summer come with spring Let winter come with spring Let autumn come with spring And all others come alone Let there be no overflow in rivers Let there be no tsunami in oceans Let birds sing their natural songs Let trees remain evergreen through the year Let flowers stay in full bloom through summer and winter Let there be no tremors felt in Earth's heart Let sun stay cool Let moon outshine sun Let stars come alive........these are our wishes..........
