The Gift of New Year's Eve

The Gift of New Year’s Eve

Christmas is over and it has been fun

The time to de-clutter, has just begun

It’s nearly time to begin a new year again

And the mess in the house is driving me insane.

So pack up the pressies and pack up the tree

Return all the gifts—of which there were three

Put on the washing and hang out the clothes

Clean out the fridge and sort out those photos

Let’s take a moment to reflect on all the love and joy

Of the season that is jolly; and every book and toy

Let’s think of the year that’s been; the year we have had

And focus on the good and not on the bad

For New Year is nearly here and we think now ahead

To the plans we have made and NOT the things we dread

So I wish you a happy year, and ask you to Believe

In new and fresh beginnings . . . the gift of New Year’s Eve
