The New Year

on

Two hands twist upon the clock face,

Inching hour by hour to the new time.

The New Year.

The calendars run thinner and thinner as the pages fall.

<br>

Parties pound on. Music and drinks to call in the New Year.

People with coloured foil hats.

All waiting for the end of the old times.

Times that are best to looked back upon fondly with rose-tinted glasses.

<br>

Time ticks on. 23:58

Seconds move slower. 11:59

And then time runs out and the new time has begun.

A time to begin again and make a new.
