New Year's Offerings Poem by Rajesh Thankappan

(1)
a new year grows buds
of hopes and expectations
to bloom in the year!

(2)
the bygone year births
and transfers its DNA into
the new year to flourish.

(3)
a sweet New Year song
rustles through the green leaves - As
flowers dance in glee!

(4)
as the new year's wind
flutters on our feathers - It's
time to rise & soar high!

(5)

Last year's dry firewood
hissing and sizzling to flames
reddens my love's face!
