As the clock winds down, the pages turn,
A year of lessons,
a time to discern.
The laughter,
the tears,
the trials,
the gain,
Each moment etched like drops in the rain.
The dreams we chased, the stars we sought,
The battles fought,
the victories bought.
Some doors closed,
some opened wide,
Guiding our journey,
our hearts as the guide.
The old year bows with a gentle sigh,
Its stories fading,
but never to die.
In its wake,
the new year stands,
A blank canvas held in time’s hands.
With hope as our anchor and love as our sail,
We venture forth,
through calm and gale.
Resolutions rise,
like morning dew,
Promising paths both tried and new.
May the year ahead bring peace and grace,
Joy in abundance, challenges we embrace.
With every sunrise,
a chance to grow,
Through life’s ebb and flow,
its endless show.
So here’s to the journey, to all that’s near,
To the turning of time,
to a bright new year.
Let’s lift our spirits,
let kindness steer,
As we welcome tomorrow without fear.
