With the night’s shadow hovering over us
we gaze up;
up at the sky where the stars shine brighter than ever
up where comets race against the dark sky
and where dreams come true
Bursts of colors caper in the sky
shedding light upon the dimness
leaving a smog lingering in the atmosphere
and a rush of joy throughout my body,
something I particularly like
And as the memories flash by us
of being with her and him and them
we set foot into yet another year of our lives
another chance to laugh; cry; smile
another chance to embrace…
