When The Clock Strikes Twelve Poem by Audrey Heller

Just a few more hours, then 2012 will
be, officially here! We're all hoping
deep down inside, it should turn out
to be, a very good year! It would be a
nice change, to see a big turn around
with more laughter, than there was
before. People, feeling more at ease
with less chaos, than before. We need
to see more smiles, on faces not, so
many frowns. Behaving more compassionate
and a lot less, like clowns! Yes, it's
been a rough year, we all can attest to
that fact. It was like running around,
after the rabbit and then finding it, in
a magicians hat! Now, it's time to settle
in, with things running nice and smooth.
Time to have that that peace and quiet,
time to find, your groove! It's a nice
thought and I wish with all my might, we
should all make a well needed transition
and I'm hoping, it will happen, when the
clock, strikes twelve, tonight!
