New Year! New You!

And so it's here, another year, Brand new from start to end, Towards the future now to steer... New Year! New You! Dear friend. Another season, stay at home, Keep Winter warmers on, Until it's time you're free to roam, When freezing months have gone... When Springtime comes, you'll sense it's warm, The clocks advance an hour, So that your mood will then transform, As if renewed with power... The daffodils will blossom soon, Like beacons far and wide, Then Summer's heat could make you swoon, Yet take it in your stride... When chestnuts ripen on the trees And fields with crops grow tall, You'll see God's wonders never cease, When Autumn comes to call... Another school year starts, of course, New uniforms for some, New regulations to enforce, As if new rules of thumb... Consider how the months fly by, Some hectic, some serene, Then spare a penny for the guy Soon after Halloween... Then poppies bought November time, Remembrance honoured still, Recalling some war poet's rhyme, Just like we always will... And finally, the Christmas cheer, God's season when you give, So take your time, this brand new year... Take time to love and live...
