The year that was

 

The year that was, has ended
The new one just begun
The year that’s past was hard and tough
The year ahead all promise
Like all past years each has a tone
Some happy, some all filled with gloom
The years add up as lives grow old
With memories both warm and cold
One year had love that grew and lived
There were the years when all love died
There were years when new life thrived
And years when deaths were mourned
and years when life was born anew
And then years deep in our hearts
and years we'll soon forget
And years when time has left its mark
And left scars eyes can see
This year is an adventure
How will it's character be, I wonder?

Triff to see you're still on top form.
