Marc O'Brien Poet Rhyme

Happy New Year-2025

Where’s twenty-twenty four 
Standing by the door 
Ready to leave 
Would you believe? 
Another annual cycle is done 
Completing three hundred sixty-five day run
Fifty-two-week span 
Now inserted into the time capsule can 
Events remembered 
January to December 
Moments treasured 
Memories pressured 
Take the good with the bad 
Happy and sad 
There were tears 
Cheers 
Nothing fear 
Going to twenty-twenty five 
Healthy and alive
Starting with bitter cold 
Quarter term getting old  
Half way home 
Heat tans our skin tone 
Then the crispy air 
Fall we will share 
Once again together we will fight 
Freezing temperatures with a bite 
Since the next chapter will be here soon 
Circling the sun and moon 
Monitoring rotations on the clock 
Never stopping the tick and tock 
As it makes another lap around the anniversary block 
Do we say good riddance? My dear, 
Or just grabbed the new aged barley beer 
For the traditional good luck toast 
Before digging into the reason for the New Year’s roast
