A New Year Dream
When I was younger and naïve,
I fell asleep on New Year’s Eve,
Imagining when I’d awaken
That the world would be smitten:
With bells ringing and people singing,
Exchanging handshakes, kisses and hugging,
With sincere intentions for prosperity,
Of peaceful co-existence and shared destiny.
When morning came, reality took over.
Between the linen, my dream shattered.
I felt older and disappointed
That yesterday’s tomorrow was no different.
