Goodbye 2021?
Goodbye 2021?
Will this new year
be a new year?
Or, the same as the old?
I guess, patience is an essence of time
As we wait for what unfolds
So, goodbye to covid
Goodbye to crime
Goodbye to war
Make peace in our time
Goodbye to jealousy
Goodbye to rage
Let love be the sunlight
And, Earth, be its stage
Goodbye dictators
Goodbye to greed
We’re under one sun
One colour, one creed
Goodbye to famine
Goodbye disease
Let us weave a new world
Where all burdens are eased
For time rolls imperceptible
And merciless is its wake
Taking all this world has given
And all that we forsake…
… Happy New Year!
