Peace at stake, Pain and pangs all over the year
In the world terrorism held its sway sans fear
Outstanding disputes difficult to resolve
Unless the whole world joins together
Sweet results can't be cobbled together!
Welcome we extend to Twenty Fifteen
Enter the year with hope and confidence
Last year's misdeeds not to be allowed
Come on friends we give up our diffidence
On our march towards the world beloved
More and more of respect and love, poise and peace
Ever to be found with all our might never to cease!
Towards a world free from wars and strife
Only sustained efforts can bring it fine!
Tears to be wiped from each and every eye
With peace and plenty, making poverty die
Every nation to be brought in line
Nothing but change of heart can bring it nice
Together the great minds should think and act
Young and old, rich and poor all should try in fact!
Fourteen- the year brought misery around
It is time to reverse all the bad that we found
Fifteen- the year to herald the world a future
That will make our land a beauty by nature
Ever to be enjoyed all through the year
Every one to breathe the air of peace clear
N one need to look back or ahead in fear!
(First letter of each line when read together gives the title of the poem "PIOUS WELCOME TO TWENTY FIFTEEN)
Let us hope that the year 2015 is free from what the world has suffered during 2014- the terror, bloodshed, the killings and all the dark patches slapped on the face of the mankind.
