The New Year Angel

She walks in the forest with crumbs in her hand 
he swoops in for food and things,  "contraband " 
its a New Year of love a New Year of Hope 
and all the pines trees are trying to cope... 
Weighed down by the snow a snowman on gin   
wants  confetti for lunch with a mouthful of tin 

She douses the light on the darkness so tragic 
and all of a sudden we are clothed in magic 
no quandary nights all past demons are gone 
the Angel of Hope has designed and redrawn 
The weather is lovely from her to down under 
the brook gurgles softly with silence as thunder 

When the ball drops in town we all clap in cheer  
we're healthy once more like the Arlington deer 
She walks from the vineyard all full of pure joy  
the C words have died, thanks to Helen of Troy
Confetti is falling from a snowflake blue sky 
we're healthy once more and we're ready to fly
