A Bright New Year

A Bright New Year

By Yvonne Moss

Rockets soar high, singing,

Booming in the night.

Seems forever ringing,

Frolic high and bright.

The brightness, implies winning,

Highlighting, as limelight.

The hope that it is bringing,

A new year, with daylight.

A great, new day beginning,

Forever charged with lights.

An old one, now is ending,

With loud, fiery highlights.

Explosive, flaming sky-lights

Awed revelers, ensue.

This New Year touts its delights,

With goals and dreams anew.
