Twenty-Nineteen Is Going To Be Here. Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Old years never come back
For many and many reasons
And new years come gladly
Just to tell us that life
Is always ahead and pretty.
Every new year pushes strongly
All the old year's days just
Letting the rising sun of a new year
Draws a new painting to life
Encircles people and even things.
Years pass quickly just to let
More room to those coming years
That carry unexpected things...
Twenty-eighteen is going to leave
Making room to twenty-nineteen
Just to tell us that we are all
Here for some time and
Nothing remains as is even years.
