Old Year New Year

Dragging his feet with exhaustion, On the unending path of time, The wise old year, the gates of Oblivion approaches, His face glowing His heart pounding for joy His soul in rapture Because In a few moments, able will he be, The heavy load of humanity’s predicaments Upon The eager shoulders, of the ignorant New Year, To, finally, lay! © Demetrios Trifiatis 29 DECEMBER 2014 HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!

Excellent Demi! The old year is only too pleased to lumber the new one with all his problems! Time to take a merited rest. Will the new year be lucky and find its load dwindling? Hopefully so! All the best to you, my friend. // paul

Demetrios!! Happy New Year to you too!! I thoroughly enjoyed your personification here. Most timely and most appropriate indeed. A "Seven" from me, and because of your poem's novelty -- it's going in my FAV file. Continued Best Holiday Wishes from Ingrid and me!! Alles Gute und Einen Guten Rutsch Im Neuen Jahr!! Gary
