Happy New Year Poem by Umasree Raghunath

Violent, Orange, Reds and Blue
We are starting a Brand Year New
Gone is the year 2004 for a Six
Happiness and sorrow in its fix
The regain of the congress era
Religious hazardous gone for Ferro
Seen the fall of an Iraq and a Saddam
With the American Imperialism
The rebuilt of the tallest structure
In the Mid India with a new venture
The fall of a music legend- MS
The wiping out of the East Asian coast
Tsunami, the word unknown so far
Became the only word we hear today
Year 2004 gave back the peak
Of sorrow and devastation freak
Calamities world over to bid adieu
Hope the New Year is free of the due
Let the glory of the best years celebrated
Be bestowed in the New Year getting started
Let the colours of a rainbow
Fill in the forthcoming year in tow
Let the happiness and peace regain
In this land currently in fear and pain
Let the charm of fun and children
Bring in the spirits of life again
Let the vastness of sky and sea
Fill the hearts to help all as we
Let the differences of religions
Have no shape amidst the year's tensions
Let the excellence of the high offices today
With Sir Kalam and Mr. Singh enlighten the country
With the radiance of intellect little ones
Let the ambience of great hearts and minds
With the new flowers that would blossom
Let the new rains come for the farmers' bloom
With sunshine bringing fishermen out of the doom
Oh 2004, Thanks for the good things you gave
Sorry for the tragedies that made you a grave
Send us the peaceful charming New Year
For us to hope for loving and a happy future.

Happy New Year! ! ! !
