#happynewyear
Farewell to 2025,
It has been quite a ride,
We thank you for the
blessings, and
for all that was provide, but
now, it is time for you to go,
about time for you to leave,
to make room for the new year,
WE ALL CAN'T WAIT TO SEE.
25 is dieing out, and
from this WE WILL NOT GRIEVE!!!
It has been pretty rough, and
SATISFACTION is what WE ALL NEED.
We have had GOOD, and BAD DAYS,
SUNSHINE, and CLOUDS OF GRAY,
TRIALS, TRIBULATIONS,
the UPS, and the DOWNS,
HAPPY TO SEE IT ALL GO AWAY!!!
As the going gets tough,
seeing you leaving, relieves us,
It is time to get it moving, and
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!
SO, FAREWELL to 2025,
as we part ways, and
SAY GOODBYE,
As we ALL WELCOME 2026, and
CONTINUE TO KEEP HOPE ALIVE!!!!
"HAVE A HAPPY
A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!!!!"

You say good morning,
Happy New Year,
Goodbye—
like a greeting,
a phrase tossed lightly into the wind,
as if it will always carry itself back to you.
But I say them
like a prayer,
soft syllables trembling on my lips,
each word a fragile offering
each word an incantation of good will
Good morning,
not just a start,
but a hope—
that the sun will rise
and it's ray's will embrace me in it's warm glow.
Happy New Year,
not just a celebration,
but a wish—
that time will be gentle,
that its passing won't steal too much.
And goodbye—
oh, goodbye,
not just a parting,
but a plea—
that it won’t be the last,
that you'll be safe
that you'll find your way back to me.
You say it all so casually,
Like a habit,
like there’s always another moment,
another chance.
Maybe the world has been kind to you
But every greeting has left it's mark on me
I pray,
Good morning, Goodbye, Goodnight, Happy Birthday, Happy Holidays,
Each word clawing at me
I say it all like a prayer,
because I know
there might not be a next time
I know warmth isn't always where you want to be.

A new year has reached my messy doormat
fireworks have been lit up to reach the night sky
everyone I know in church was chanting “ happy new year!” to the people next to them as if they are their neighbors
golden confetti has been thrown from upstairs of the church
down to where me and my family are
some of the confetti got stuck on my hair but I don’t mind
after the service my parents talks about New Year’s resolutions
even though from my experience my parents are the first to fail them
when we got home instead of me staring at the ceiling(as usual)
I decided to open my window and look at the few stars
but overtime they began to lose their elegant sparkle tonight
fireworks were waking me up every time my eyelids tried to fail me
I couldn’t keep track of the time for quite a while
but I already knew I wasn’t going to sleep that easily
plus my new headphones made sure of that
with every song that hummed one ear to the other
everyone was sleeping even the dogs that howled at night
it was only then when the fireworks started to become quieter
and the sky has begun to look a little more bright
a new day has arrived
I began to admire the sun rays introducing themselves to the world
while I picked every golden confetti out of my hair
I summed up a conclusion
even though we all have different goals or visions or experiences
in the end we all see the same sunrise

Dear Namrata, wish you in advance, the happiest New Year
As a colleague, were you quite dear
And as a friend, we share a lovely bond
By nature, are you exceedingly kind
Always, have you been on my side
Through many a rollercoaster ride!
Dear Namrata, wish you in advance, the happiest New Year
I miss you more and more
As the days pass by
Indeed, was it hard to say goodbye
However, shall our relationship last for life
And firmly shall we support each other, in times of strife!!
Dear Namrata, wish you in advance, the happiest New Year
You are a fantabulous wife and mother
Almost godlike, are your children
Your home nearly feels like heaven
You too are welcome at my house, any time
Your mere presence would make my family members beam!!
Dear Namrata, wish you in advance, the happiest New Year
May 2025 bring you infinite cheer
May you have a life almost free of stress
Come true, may all your dreams
Have fun, take care and see you soon
And till then, may you shine as brightly as the Sun!!

The Christmas poem
As love ones gather near and far
Wishing each other a merry Christmas and happy new year
The ones in heaven wishing they were here
You hear them whispering in the wind
You see them in your dreams
You tell them I wish heaven would let you visit this time of year
You see thier footsteps in the snow
You see the red cardinal
You may even see a feather here or there
Just knowing they are there
Don’t be sad this time of year
See people who are still here
Homeless person may be cold
they even be hungry
Feeling that they are forgotten
Don’t feel forgotten people still care
Don’t be sad this time of year
Words only mean what you hold so dear
So try to spread  a little Christmas cheers
Merry Christmas to all and happy new year

In the glow of midnight's chime,
2024 dawns, a rhythm divine.
Stars whisper secrets in the sky,
A canvas of dreams, soaring high.
Resolutions dance in hopeful eyes,
Like fireworks that light the skies.
A tapestry woven, threads of change,
New beginnings, a wide-open range.
Clocks reset, a chance reborn,
Embrace the dawn, a brand new morn.
Hopes sparkle like the year's first dew,
A symphony of possibilities anew.
Reflect on lessons, bid farewell,
To yesteryears, where stories dwell.
Tomorrow's pages yet unwritten,
In the book of time, we are smitten.
Let laughter echo, let joy persist,
As the calendar turns, a fresh twist.
Carve your path in this unknown,
A journey where seeds of dreams are sown.
So, raise a toast to the unseen,
To moments yet to be, serene.
In the melody of the turning year,
May your heart find its cheer.

As 2023 cometh to an end
Thankful am I, to have many a friend
Who have been there for me
Through an emotional rollercoaster of a year
Some of whom, are as dear
As a family member or a cousin
And who ensure that I don't sin!
Truly, this has been a tornado of a year
Many occasions there have been
When I have shed many a tear
Sometimes, the grass has been green
Other times, a mess of overgrown weeds
However, planted have been the seeds
For a new beginning
Though a lot of work is still pending!!
As the countdown for 2024 begins
Hoping am I, for a lot of things
To be cleared, are my dues
To be overcome, are my work blues
To be conquered, are my fears
With the help of my dears
To be fought, are my insecurities
To be handled, all are uncertainties
To be managed, is stress
To be bought, is a new dress
To be controlled, is my intake of sugar
Even if my problems get bigger and bigger
To be developed, is confidence
To be taken, are many a chance
To be less dependent on, are people
Else, get caught I might, in a tangle
And finally, must I be happy as I am
Including not giving a ****
About what the society may or may not think
While I enjoy a drink!
Just like every other year
To 2024, do I look forward
Hopefully, it may bring a reward
For all my sincere efforts
Even if I haven't followed all the dos and don'ts
You may see a new Ashwin
More capable of handling pain
I may even find love
Even if it doesn't seem possible right now
Finally learn, may I, how to say 'No'
Though the process may be slow
However, fear I need not
If I follow Jesus' teachings a lot
Because, he is the most important person
In my entire life
And will always save me when there is strife
To be learned from him, are many a lesson
Finally, to 2023, is it time to say goodbye
And leave all my anxieties high and dry
Dear 2024, do I welcome thee
With arms wide open
Let this be the beginning
Of a new innings
May we all smile more often
Even when not required
May all our pain be buried
And finally, may we all love each other
Including becoming friends across borders
Wish you all a very Happy New Year in advance!
Let us begin the dance!!
Amen!! Hallelujah!!

A plate of cookies, A glass of milk. On the table next to the tree, With nothing to see.
We went to sleep. Without a sound, Santa came with a bound
He went through his bundle As we are asleep
He went up the chimney, without making a sound.
As the morning sunrises, We jumped out of bed. Still in our jammies.
Ran to our stocking to see what Santa has given us.
Under the Christmas tree, Some presents for us.
We all went out on a Christmassy Party, It was a blast
As the night drawn by, We had goodies to take home.
As soon as we're home, We were all tired and a little cold.
We took a warm cozy blanket and warm ourselves, We ended our night with a cup of hot chocolate in our hands.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Welcome 2021

In the final countdown I craved to let it all go
Setting intentions for what the New year would bestow
So hopeful and yet naïve still like a child
Sure that which is coming is calm and mild
Midnight struck to bring in a New Year
Yet the old world came the pain didn't disappear

*I
am
cautious
with my hope
and optimism
for the year, 2021
but even so, I keep the
flame of this candle
well - fed*
I light this candle
in memory of those
who have lost their
lives in the previous
year as well as to
honour every
hardworking soul
in the frontlines
In such dark times, it
is hard to remember
the light I implore us
all to keep it all ignited
I speak to us as one
race and one race alone
To all my fellow people
my brothers and sisters
all over the world
please keep your candle
lit, never forget what has
been lost. Stay safe and
well all of you May 2021
be a year of blessings
and successes
STAY HOPEFUL

I hope he knows that I feel the stress
vortex banging against his cranium.
even with my welcoming surface,
he struggles to let go.
I hope he knows that it is not I that
needs replacing,
but simply his way of thinking that
needs readjusting.
A new year
A mindset anew
Hello 2021

Contemplation always lies
Between I do and I don't
Primarily on yes or no
Definitely not in-between
That is not a counterclaim
Of whether you accredit prodigy or misfortune
Either Signs and wonders
But to her lies a sacred divination
Which permit her to wish you
a phenomena new year

अंधकार का जो साया था,
तिमिर घनेरा जो छाया था,
निज निलयों में बंद पड़े थे,
रोशन दीपक मंद पड़े थे।
निज श्वांस पे पहरा जारी,
अंदर हीं रहना लाचारी ,
साल विगत था अत्याचारी,
दुख के हीं तो थे अधिकारी।
निराशा के बादल फल कर,
रखते सबको घर के अंदर,
जाने कौन लोक से आए,
घन घोर घटा अंधियारे साए।
कहते राह जरुरी चलना ,
पर नर हौले हौले चलना ,
वृथा नहीं हो जाए वसुधा ,
अवनि पे हीं तुझको फलना।
जीवन की नूतन परिभाषा ,
जग जीवन की नूतन भाषा ,
नर में जग में पूर्ण समन्वय ,
पूर्ण जगत हो ये अभिलाषा।
नए साल का नए जोश से,
स्वागत करता नए होश से,
हौले मानव बदल रहा है,
विश्व हमारा संभल रहा है।

One
Happy New Year!
I glance over at him
And he stares back at me
In the moment
We realize that
Seven years of loving each other
Was worth everything
Pain and patience
Happiness and sadness
We believe in each other
We know that what we have
Is truly extraordinary
And that we are in it for the long run
I look into those emerald eyes
He looks into my doe-brown eyes
The entire world comes to a stop
And our lips lock to our new year.

Sitting in the night filled with snow...
she allowed the thoughts to flow.
She reminsced her gains....
and looked backed on to her pains.
Thought of the things she has done...
but she regretted none.
She sat down to take a resolution...
said a big no to anymore pollution..
to her mind and heart.
Decided to love herself a little more...
determined to stand firmly for herself.
planned to shed off her useless layers
She is waiting zealously to renew herself in this new year and
to fly off with her beautiful dreams
✨✨✨

It’s a New Year and a New Decade,
nature, love and much more to be praised,
fresh canvas and new colors it’s going to be framed,
surely, belief in us will paint the way we want it shaped.

You don't have to do anything special for special occasions,
because normal is the most precious kind of special.

I awake to a new day
Yet feel unenthusiastic.
Unlike most others, I don't really care
That the new day brings upon a new year.
It just means milestones occur.
Important events. Changes.
My birthday's in 16 days.
Adulthood approaches rapidly, and I'm unprepared.
Am I immature? Am I not ready?
I'm unsure. Yet I remain steadfast.
I'm not ready for this change.
That day will only add pressure on me.
Their expectations are high, I suppose.
"You're going to be a computer engineer." Or something like that.
But I'm…confused. Parts of it I'm not good at.
And I'm left wondering if I even care about that class anymore.
What if I don't want to pursue that?
Will it be a waste of my "talent" or is it just a fleeting interest?
I suppose I could take up writing but…
We all know that's just wishful thinking.
My mind's clouded, uncertainty filling it to the brim.
And as each minute passes, I just count down the days
Until I can talk to her again.
Even if we're far from each other, we'll still be connected.
Just like the days before.
And then, I'll make her smile.
In that moment, I'll forget about my own troubles.
And focus on hers.
Is this a bad thing to do? Probably.
Do I care too much? Perhaps.
Will this help me forget about everything though?
No. It won't. But at least I can be happy.
Even if that's for a few hours a week.

It's the first hour of the new year and I feel whole.
It could be because of all the champagne
Or the fact I realized that **** happens and you can't control it, so you might as well just smile
I'm pushing the thought of you away
I'm smiling and laughing with my mom and sister
I feel happy

'Happy New Year. . .'
Happy new year.
I wish you the best for the year ahead.
I hope the year is full of bliss,
Full of joy .
I hope you find love,
I hope you find the one.
No matter the challenges,
Whatever the new year brings forth,
Don't worry, fear not.
I know you'll come out on top.
