ECHO OF A NEW YEAR

                                                            

How white spirits flows by the air around; hearts with joys, eyes with hopes

Romance in winter; and laugh till belly ache

Coldness fill with warm hugs; colours fill by clowns

Six strings foresight the saga of novel year;

Lovers kiss and moon shines overhead

December breeze adieu in tears, the arrival of new dawn

Clock shows twelve and claps offer hero’s welcome,

The New Year!

But, riches are richer, poor are poorer

Poverty stares and money flows in the air.

Sun rises in the east; husband curse the alarm clock

Time travels by, and frogs busy in their desk

Kid learn the alphabet and kitten play with the rat

Wife shouts after maid, and crows caws at her

Dog barks at stranger in the rust gate

And gambler enjoys beer with their mate

Clock shows twelve and sun shines overhead

All in chains!

Marriage honours dowry and farmers dreams sack of rice

Beggar begs and thieves steal laid eggs

But, nothing changes; nothing comes and nothing goes

As I stares at them, since I remember,

The year I was born.
