New Year's Eve



Every year past Decembers
Cold and windy months
I created moment by moment

revelries for others


While all the while
As the euphoria of countdown settles
I was dreaming to be
with loved ones

This year I do not want the fanfare
I long for the quiet moment
Of deep content and giddy happiness

bubbling inside

Happy New Year, friends and fellow travelers of the blogosphere !
I shall no longer be like the candle in the wind, creating glamour and radiance for others but not for those closest to my heart.

    Ninot Ma'am,
    It must be a big relief! No more on your toes doing things for others. NY Eve is for you to savour and for you to do your own thing.How nice!

    I thought I did
    Obviously I didn't
    So let me do it
    Before I forget
    Wish you and your loved ones a happy and prosperous new year.
