A New Year
Poet: Ken Jordan
Poem: A New Year
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: December/2014
Out
in the
(far)
far distance,
Fire works
are
set to
explode
and
light up
the
night sky,
amid
onlookers,
joy
and
cheers -
Signaling
a
brand
new year
has
come -
A
new year
that's
not
promised -
Only
the
Great Spirit,
hold
the keys
to
tomorrow -
So
as
the seconds
tick
towards
a
new year,
Humble
thy self,
before
the Lord
(First) -
and
give thanks -
For our
next breath
is only
a
dream -
Therefore,
should
you be
so
favored
and
blessed,
to
witness
the
clock
strike
midnight,
By
all means
Celebrate!!
Ring
in
the
New Year!
But,
know that
a
new year
will
become
as
the old
year,
if you
continue
to do
the
same things
as
before,
expecting
a
different outcome -
Only
through
Hope, Faith,
and
Love -
Will
a
brighter
year
shine on
you -
Happy New Year!
