Happy New Year

This poem is the acrostic for Carol Browne's competition Happy - that's those who laugh Angry - that's those who frown Pleasing - that's those who befriend Pompous - that's those who look down. Yearning for - that's those who have lost Need - that's something we all feel Emptiness - that's not sought after Wealth - that's those who have a good deal. Young at heart - that's to be cherished Everyone deserves respect and care A Happy New Year to each one of you Rich in friendship and peace - be aware.
