The Year 2015 Poem by J Sheba Anandhi

"I welcome this New Year
With all hopes to bear, "
That was exactly how I began
The year 'two thousand and fifteen',
On the day of the New Year
There were many wishes to prosper,
I have lived another year,
Now this year is going to be called ‘last year'
For the following one year;

I learned how to direct my will
Took a vow to make a new spell,
Faced a variety of new situations,
Without jumping into conclusions
Underwent a multitude of confusions;

With every single word I wrote
I tardily started to gain hope,
Did a number of selfless favors
Without expecting a tiny bit of savor;

Besides solitude and separation,
There was way for creativity and explanation,
From "I" to a bird that could fly
Everything started to inspire me without a sly;

My love for Physics grew up
My pun for poetry sprang up,
January can actually be considered cool
But February wasn't a fruitful tool,
I didn't do well in preparing for JAM
Unfortunately my finger was the one to face the jam,
I can still clearly see the day eight
When my left pinkie forever lost its movable might;

Those were the days of real pain,
I had much to lose and a little to gain,
Before I got adjusted to the new boon
March was gone and farewell was so soon;

I had to miss my lovely friends,
But they are yet and always my dear friends,
The three years of life in my college
Wound up in the month of April, with a pledge
That we would be in touch even after leaving college;

There came a time to think about future
And I thought a lot and waited for a letter,
Many things happened for the first time
I stepped out of my state for the first time,
Not to the north or west
But directly to the north-west,
The adventure was very good
The memory is still too good;

The interview was a success
And I got to engage in some prowess,
The month of May
Wasn't much boring I could say;

There came June,
I was lazing and wasn't ready again
As I had to prepare soon
For an exam that is to be over by noon;

I was able to solve the Rubik's cube
In less than a minute and that felt cool,
I waited a while and the list was out
In a new ambiance I started my postgraduate;

It was the first time to be a co-ed,
With cool and smart friends around it was really good,
That lasted for only twenty days
After which I had to always remember that those are the happy days;

At the end of July
I was dreamily about to fly
As I saw the rainbow for the first time,
Then I realized I was in the right place at the right time;

People were super smart
I was happy that I was able to take part,
August was inspiringly interesting
Every word was serenely motivating;

Had a Birthday cake by friends for the first time
That was a real celebration after a very long time,
The month of September
Was lovely to remember;

I got to visit the great Tanjore temple
After which the happiness I felt was ample,
That was in the month of October,
Then came the month of November,
I really had to face a lot and it was hard to remember;

Then finally came the month of December,
I cannot forget that important member
Who is no more but still I can remember,
I am going to miss the days I spoke to my grandfather,
My grandfather was the best of all
I will always remember him and to me he is above all;

2015 was really a wonderful year,
And I am going to miss this year,
With a lot of hope I await the New Year,
To wish everyone a Happy New Year.
