As we welcome in 2021,
We are pleased that last year has now gone.
So what now shall this new year bring?
Will we once again laugh and smile and sing?

Of this virus can we soon be rid?
As we abhor the dreadful things it did.
And it is now time to cling to hope,
As last year many found it hard to cope.

What has this new year got in store?
We shall not yield to Covid any more.
So will this be a year of great optimism?
And not be one of doubts or pessimism.

So carry faith upon the road ahead,
Since of the future there's no need to dread.
And while last year was one of great strife,
We should all soon be back to our old life.
