Smile And Toast Their Lives At Midnight. Poem by David Boyce

As the New Year passes over,
In many lands far away,
The end of this year nears,
As minutes tick to the end of the day.

As we sit with friends to celebrate,
The start of this year 2025,
We take a moment to remember,
All those who this year lost their lives.

We will remember all the good times,
Which we all had in the past,
As the end of the year gets closer,
And the clock seems to be ticking fast.

Take a moment to send up a prayer,
For those whom you cherished so,
Because our lives on earth continues,
Whilst their souls regrow.

Whether family, friends or colleagues,
We will recall the good times had,
Smile and toast their lives at midnight,
So the New Year will not start sad.
