As the hands of time tick-tock
On another New Years Eve
The hands of time tick louder
As the year prepares to leave
Our focus in the moment
Of all that has been done
The energy of the last 12 months
We’re excited to be gone.
Hope and wonder sparkle
Glittering in our eyes
As we watch the pretty patterns
Lighting up the sky
There is lightness all round us
Of all the next year will bring
Reflecting in our new year cries
As we all start to sing.
Happy New Year!
Let’s make it a good one!
Let it be our best!
Our hearts open wide in this moment
Embracing all we can be
As we love each other with abandon
Believing in the best version
Of you and you and me.
And so, the next year moves in
And soon the sparkle seems to fall
The beliefs we held at midnight
Fall from our hearts
To be trampled on the floor
And the tick-tock of time
Is heard no more
As we trudge from chore to chore.
And so, we make it through another year
Exclaiming, where has it gone!
And the ticking hands of time
Can be heard by all once more
And the hopeful magic in our hearts
Opens its ever loving door
And we are present
In the moment once more.
But, what if we did things differently
For more than a week or two
What if we stayed in the moment
And watched us blossom and bloom
The whole year through.
What if we kept our hearts open
And slowed into present time
Being in each and every moment
Feeling the sublime.
What if we allowed this notion
To follow us through the year
Of walking in love and compassion
Of feeling the presence and holding it dear.
What if we let our hearts show us
All that we can be
For more than just one night
For all eternity.
What if we embraced each other
Believing in the best version
Of you and you and me.
What if we try it and see.
Wishing you all a very happy 2023.
Love, Always ❤️
