New Years Celebration Poem by Alexandra Motschmann

It’s just one night
within a single year
it’s an inner sight
with a sad or happy tear

We reflect the past
what trace we took
designed our life’s book
either slow or fast

Sometimes we are crisis-torn
by all those memories
through losses and victories
feeling almost reborn

The past is bygone
the deeds are done
Moving on the aim
The future to proclaim

Sing nee-an kwai ler
or happy new year
Felice Anno Nuovo
or Shana Tova

Around the globe
the rabbi or the pope
all feast on one single day
and all in their own way

So lets party with glee
new pictures to see
the future we create
being the master of our fate

HAPPY NEW YEAR! ! !
