Happy New Year

By : Abu Shazil

Bye Two Thousand Eleven
we wait with baited breathe for you to depart
Once you are gone our tomorrows start
You cling to us with your dirty nails
polluting our minds with awful memoir
bygone is autumn, Spring prevails

Goodbye last year
we lay you to rest in eternal peace
Eager to unfold tomorrow's mystery
and saving you in the books of history

We are the siblings of emerging Tomorrows
zealous earthlings
moving to happiness forgetting sorrows
flying spirits needing no wings

On the hunt of dirty dudes
haunting our present
promoting violent moods
converting them to vibrant

Friends of mankind
enjoy with each beat of your heart
remember to share
all your love and care
just like we did
in the past year
