New Year

The New Year
Arrives 
In a pack 
Of playing cards!

No one knows
What the New Year 
Holds for us!  

The pack contains
52 cards
Plus two jokers!

The 52 cards
Make the 52 weeks—
One card 
For each week!

The jokers 
Symbolise
Joy and sorrow!  

One of them 
Will attend on us
All the time…
So there is a fair mix
Of both
For us
Through the year!

That is the way
The New Year
Is going to be!

That is the way
Life is going to be…
