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!
