Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for December 31, 2015

Time to throw a few logs on the squirrels, Jimbo.

New Year’s Reflections

In New York City people crowdTo watch the lighted ball descendThey count the seconds all as oneTo mark another yearly end

As people cheer and dance aboutWe all reflect on what has passedWhat has gone on in daily livesAround this planet wide and vast

The miracles both great and smallNew friendships made and old ones keptThe loved ones gone and still aroundJoyous laughter, sadness wept

The little things that brought a smileThe great events in distant landsSmall victories both won and lostThe kisses, hugs and holding hands

Another year has come and goneAnother Auld Lang Syne is sungThe ball descends, the clock chimes 12A brand new year has now begun

This does NOT mean you’re “published.”

Who cares if the squirrels are there? They can’t talk.

if you’re going to get all embarrassed because a few little animals are watching, what are you going to do about all those millions of bacteria that are looking at you 24/7?

Happy New Year everyone.
