Welcome to the New Year
Leave the past behind
This moment is clear
Use this year to find
The future holds no fear
Take time to unwind
Ways to be near
Ways to be kind
Open your ears to hear
What is on another's mind
Speak your mind and be sincere
Don't let relationships unwind
Share your new found cheer
The love of two combined
Will last through the year
This is fun! The rhyming of every other line must have taken a lot of time. I like the ideas behind this poem. I like "Don't let relationships unwind" because it seems so important and makes a lot more sense than "my all acquaintance be forgot" - a line of Aud Lang Sine that never made sense to me. If you want to keep working on this, expand it, incorporating more imagery. The cadence is great. It could be sung. Maybe this is the start of a new New Years song! -Anna
