New Year's Midas Touch

New Year's Midas Touch You have the Midas touch in 2016! My antennas stood up, my neck did preen Like I had swallowed centre shock My two lamps glistened and head did rock I sucked in a deep breath allowing my thoughts to brew Asked my palmist friend if it was really true She smiled and told me to wait till the year ends My stars are going through favourable bends But I had started sensing it sieve A fortnight before new year's eve The obstacles in personal life had kept me in a sway Were miraculously being blown away Expedited with unusual unexpected ease My tensed nerves were tranquilly on a cease Or was it meditation that had wizened me? Eureka! Wherever life would lead me! Destiny and fate dances with the wind It lifted dad in its arms to far away land Tears rolled down streams of migration Into my heart for permanent felicitation His love for flora was observed with ardour His nursery of winter flowers blooms in my arbour Comfort zones of dependency snipped away Emotional independence opened a new doorway Past is frosty, new year's beginning is interesting Eureka! The Midas Touch on my palms say something! January 2, 2016 Contest: Any Poem You've Been Writing On New Year's Sponsor: Skat A
