The New Year

An old year passes, the days fly by
Those new resolutions reach sky high

Old memories are caught in photos so clear
New friends bring hope with shining, bright cheer

Our paths keep winding, their roads of success
Our days keep records of whispers to confess

We make our goals for this bright New Year
To hold and bind these dreams from our fear

Technology booms, handwritten divides
Computer screens loom, and people collide

Through each day new, we question our fate
With each hour gone, don’t sit and just wait

Take this New Year to heart my dear friend
Take this New Year and run with amend

Turn a new page & leave written the past
Life is only present, and it goes far too fast.

Cheers to the New Year
Laura A. Allen
