Happy New Year  

(rhyming acrostic)

 
 
Happy are those who can let go of the past
And look to the New Year with joy that will last
Past mistakes forgiven, we join in the song
Positively uplifting one another along
Yes it’s time once again to strive to unite
 
Now let us all go forth and walk in the light
Emerging from chaos and the stuff of strife
Whatever it takes, let us start a new life
 
Yesterday has become a dim memory
Every heart yearns to change the course of history
A time for reflection as the old year ends
Rejoice as former foes have now become friends

I remember reading this. Weird that I hadn't reviewed it. Great poem. It's filled with motivation and inspiration and of course emotion. This is the poem we should turn to when we feel like we've hit rock bottom and there is no way up.

Beautiful. I especially love that line, "Yesterday has become a dim memory." I don't know about a new life, but how about a good year? The last two were horrible.

Happy New Year! :)

Amen to this, dear Regis. You express succinctly and adroitly what so many of us are feeling. Life is just too short to not do and make the best we can of it - for others as well as ourselves. A fine New Year sentiment and exhortation. xx

Acrostic poems are always fun to write, I think. I admire your ability to tell a story with the acrostic and keep it moving forward with the rhyme and slant rhyme to make it all work together. Telling a story is sometimes a little difficult to do, but you did it! Blessings and Happy New Year to you!
