One full Year I have known her close
She has made me laugh, she has made me cry
She has given me hope, yet with no regrets
I shall let her - year 2015, go by
Most of it will pass off with time
Yet, some memories so strong to keep
New resolves, new beginnings
Hope this year I will peacefully sleep
A year so placid, yet one where I came
Face to face with Father Death
Cheated him, yet find myself
A year older, in worsening health
A Year I found that those who care
For me, did strengthen our bonding
Them for whom each day in life
Has multiplied, my yearning
Then there were those who in my life
Has chosen to gift much pain
Them for whom their love for me
Did steadily over the year, wane
I can choose to moan or choose to ignore
My choice in life is clear
I shall not carry any baggage of hurt
To burden my life this New Year
Remove them I will as a painful wart
They shall not alter my fate
For this year when I start anew
I will with a clean slate
Let this New Year start afresh
Let it light up with rays of hope
Let us all with acts of kindness
Trudge up life's slippery slope
In this New Year, let fresh flowers bloom
In every garden of love
To break down walls of religious hate
Let us all take an oath now
Let it bring joy, let it bring smiles
And peace for the entire mankind
Where there was tear -smile, despair -hope
And the hungry, food they shall find
Whether you are rich or whether you are poor
Let every soul be filled with cheer
Let the drums roll, the celebrations begin
To Welcome a fabulous New Year
