Thanking the Faces
Some things about that New Year’s Eve
I never will forget;
A sweet, soft-spoken Andrea
and young man proud to wed.
My New Year’s cheers was sounded by,
four strangers on a street.
Opening their hearts to me –
how beautiful when new souls meet.
Yes, as I strolled those joyous roads;
love pouring uncontained.
My most embracing New Year’s kiss,
with Mary shall remain.
So many faces on my rove –
How David’s words me touched.
Euphoria! Millennia!
It all became too much.
And as I wandered back to where,
my peace and solace reigns;
I’m thanking all the faces that,
me this acclaim attains.
