Goodbye 2021?

Will this new year

be a new year?

Or, the same as the old?

I guess, patience is an essence of time

As we wait for what unfolds

 

So, goodbye to covid 

Goodbye to crime

Goodbye to war

Make peace in our time

 

Goodbye to jealousy

Goodbye to rage

Let love be the sunlight

And, Earth, be its stage

 

Goodbye dictators 

Goodbye to greed

We're under one sun

One colour, one creed

 

Goodbye to famine

Goodbye disease

Let us weave a new world

Where all burdens are eased

 

For time rolls imperceptible

And merciless is its wake

It'll take all we've been given

And all that we forsake...


 

... Happy New Year 😁❤️
