Best New Years Eve Poems


Premium Member New Years Eve

Tis here, the eve of one day less
     Of sorrow lost and hope reborn
     If will brings us closer to our best
     What reasons leave us cause to mourn?
     
     From dust we pass and sweep aside
     Its wake to crest in history's courts
     Our fate, at hand, to be un-denied
     Trim sails that wind for peaceful ports

     No wishful thoughts add moments more
     Nor take hours away paid to the past
     As tides cast sand upon the shore
     So time decrees the grains that last

     May our imperfections drift away
     On this the eve of New Years day
 
     Happy New Year

A Flight On New Years Eve

Outside branches clawed the slate,
Dragging frosty talon nails,
Whilst high above the moon there sails
A silver jet on vapour trails;
Unknown, sat in her steely hull they wait,
Whoever they may be, they are,
The time-zone throng who travel far,
The riders of the shooting star.
Erased to faceless, sketchy visions,
Sped across the sky,
As grounded, rooted – wonder, watch,
The last year passing by.

New Years Eve-Retourne Poem

"Shall We Retourne Contest
French Retourne Poem
Sponsor: Debbie Guzzi

One night, holiday, New Years Eve,
The big ball drops down in Times Square,
Such a big crowd, hard to believe,
"Happy New Year" is then declared.

Wow, isn't Time Square just lovely?
Promises of resolutions,
New York always kept a big flare,
Until the midnight conclusion.

With many people all around,
Drifts of snow through out the whole world,
And my daughter, in disbelief,
Building snowmen and backyard forts.

Lets all cheer the new year is here!
Goodbye to 2015,
For a new year  has just begun,
Welcome to 2016.

NEW YEAR’S EVE DISASTER

Gaby was preening from four after noon,
New Year’s Eve and Vincent was due soon,
Had butterflies all day,
When he came what to say?
She was sassy, bold and in a swoon.

Vincent six foot four, Gaby just five foot,
How to kiss or dance, should be a hoot,
Chose Gaby, she was flattered,
First date, nervous, shattered,
Can mum come, Gaby gave Vincent the boot!

A Toast For New Years Eve

Whilst I lay in my bed, 
And reflect on my past
I remember that I want, 
Certain moments to last.
 
Like this evening tonight;
On New Years Eve;
We’re having too much fun
With much more to achieve!

For the New Year, is here!
And let it be said
’08 is now gone,
It is totally dead!

So we lift up our glasses!
Way high in the sky!
We’re not going to remember this,
Let’s not even try!

Don’t take a drink!
It’s not yet that time!
You have to let me finish
My cute little rhyme!

Now cheers to our friends,
Both new and old!
Let’s cheers to the stories 
That have yet to be told!

Let’s cheers to the nights 
That we stayed out late
Let’s cheers to you!
For being so wonderful, 
And being so great!

Happy New Year!

New Years Eve

New Years Eve celebration
Ever so grateful of redemption 
With overindulgence of consumption

Year-end celebrating 
Edibles I've been craving
Aha so much champagne drinking
Recoup from stomach bloating
Swaying, light-headed teetering

Eek nightcaps of antacid
Verily, not so lucid
Eau de mornings, feeling putrid

A bluebird came streaking violently out of Central Park,
it blurred over the lanes of traffic towards 220.
I flinched in anticipation of the impact,
but at the last second it darted directly up,
as if caught in a sudden wind current.
“Did you see that?” I asked Lisa.
She didn’t, her phone was jiggling.

My boyfriend left yesterday
He had to leave before New Year’s eve!
he has to work and cannot play
he finally gets to run the hadron collider
go get em’ tiger
but I’ve decided
you can’t fight the zeitgeist
that when the cats away
the girls will have their day.

Someone start the music please,
because it’s NEW YEARS Eve!

Happy New Year’s Eve everyone!

A Limerick Quartet, For New Years Eve

Getting ready for a New Years chin dig 
I purchased a new fancy schmancy wig
and bubbly for chilling; 
I'm ready and willing
to pare, next year I'll be lank as a twig 

Santa needs a break from the Holiday
the left overs echo in the fridge, oh Hey!
the turkey is wasted 
his eye balls are basted 
Merry Eggnog to all now get out of my way

Pop goes the bottle and in goes the booze 
its time to party don't snooze or you lose 
fetch me a drink 
fast as a blink 
bubble me up, please don't sing me the blues 

Jopple Jim slim feeling kind of perplexed 
he wasn't invited and now he is vexed
crack open a bottle 
go to full throttle 
send him his invite by crook or by text

The Eve of Never New Years Eve Heartbreak

As the time winds down,
And the shots get more hectic,
My mind begins to scramble,
Now *****is getting skeptic,
At 5 I hear your voice,
I see your smile,
I feel your hate,
At 4 I feel Mary,
I feel Love,
But at it's fate,
At 3 I see you walking,
I see him walking,
I see the Eve,
At 2 I begin to set my mind up to believe,
At 1 all hope is lost and by then I can retrieve,
My thoughts and now I can fully receive,
The news but I ask why you had to deceive?
And now you have all of the eyes staring,
As your Infidelity begins to show,
And your conscious begins to scare,
Right around the same time that my heart stops to care,
And in the midst I'm left there,
In the air with no one to lend a comforting hand,
*****I got treated like a fan,
On the Eve of Never.....

New Years Eve

It's time we say goodbye to this past year
As we look forward to tomorrow one thing is clear

We can write our own story of what lies ahead
Or we can sleep it away lying in bed

When we decide on some self correction
Let's make sure it's in the right direction

Decisions decisions oh what to do
Many with a resolution to lose a pound or two

So get up and go for that run or walk
Or will you be the one who is just all talk

A new year always brings a nice clean slate
Just be careful of what you put on your proverbial plate

Always make time for family and friends
Cause only God knows when our time here ends

Tonight is the night for this year to depart
Tomorrow is the day for a new year to start

My New Years Eve

My New Years Eve,
I drank and i danced.
I smiled and laughed.
Had so much fun,
Had a blast.
With my family,
How i wished it would last.
Celebrateing new starts,
And new begingings,
As time had past.
My New Years Eve,
Started out great.
O how i love to celebrate.
Out with the old.
In with the new.
The ball fell.
Hats flew.
With glasses up,
Happy New Years to you too!!

New Years Eve Count Down

as the night fall
the ball on the wall
is about to fall
lots of people
ar around
to listen  in the cool breed
the
NEW YEARS EVE 
COUNT DOWN

New Years Eve Party

New Years Eve it’s party time
Sup the beer and drink the wine
Special meal with new made friends
Comedian, sometimes offends.

Food and dancing all the way
To give old year it’s last hooray
Music singing from the show
Songs and jokes and laughter flow

Countdown starts with 10 to go
Poppers an balloons to throw
At last the final seconds boom
Bells and chimes to fill the room

Hugs and kisses, Chinks and cheers
Shaking hands, smiles and tears
Special thoughts for old friends passed
Resolutions never last.

Confetti, streamers piled in heaps
Stay up late, eat Tats and Neaps
Champagne flows, fizz and bubbles
Drink too much- have some troubles.

In the morning a different story
Headache-nausea feeling poorly
Take some pills and close your eyes
Promises to be more wise

Last day today with sad farewell
Next Year to meet again we tell
Drive Safe –good trip to all we wish
Memories that last just bliss.

Hot summer, holiday season:
Shopping done, we focus on fun,
Another year is the reason.
Hot summer - holiday season –
Humid, cloud, ninety degrees in,
Hot summer, holiday season;
Shopping done, we focus on fun.

Thunder and  light’ning New Year’s Eve, 
Mingled with fireworks is showing;
Weather and sparklers interweave.
Thunder and light’ning - New Year’s Eve - 
Celebrate as the past we leave,
Welcome the future with glowing.
Thunder and light’ning, New Year’s Eve: 
Mingled with fireworks in showing. 

Midnight arrives, we kiss and hug,
Wish each other good luck and cheer,
Raise our glasses high, clink and chug
Midnight arrives - we kiss and hug –
Sigh sentiment, swat the stray bug,
Off to bed the first time this year:
Midnight arrives, we kiss and hug…
Wish each other good luck and cheer!

New Years Eve

New Years Eve

By 10 o’clock on New Years Eve
Nine friends had come to celebrate
Eight together; with hearts on sleeve
        But the last introduced was Kate

Seven beers and I’m feeling fine
Six more crashers were at the door
Five so-called friends had crossed the line
	But Kate was laughing all the more

Four more minutes until midnight
Three of my friends were singing songs
Two couples leaving in a fight
	Another left to smoke a bong

As the clock was striking midnight
Kate approached me with a kiss
She took my hand then held me tight
	A new year is starting; in bliss

Happy New Year!
