A New Year Dream
A New Year Dream
When I was younger and naive,
I fell asleep on New Year’s Eve,
Imagining that when I awakened,
The world would be smitten by love:
With bells ringing and people singing,
Exchanging handshakes, kisses, and hugging,
With sincere intentions for prosperity,
Peaceful coexistence, and a 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.
