Oh, Eve of a New Year !
Champagne bottles break;
Resolutions stay spotless
By sharpened
snowflakes...
We greet bright-eyed babies;
Aged men wave goodbye;
Yet, just
12 months prior,
We sailed those same highs!
'Feb' gathers love poems
And scores of red
hearts;
The Ides bring March madness,
With winds off the charts.
April weaves baskets
Of jonquils and bunnies;
May summons bumblebees
Brimming with honey...
Many a bride says 'I Do'
In fair June;
July's blazing skies
Call for flag-bearing tunes...
Sweet August is sunrise;
September, full moon;
October breathes harvests
That cause geese to swoon...
In times of November
Great tables are laden;
But once comes December,
Fine snow slows to 'fade-in'
When that last day arrives:
[December '3' with a '1']
It excitedly bellows,
THIS YEAR'S ABOUT DONE !!!
