The culmination of the evening's celebration
Eyes fixated as the ball slowly drops
Believing tomorrow begins as yesterday stops

When the clock strikes that magical midnight
So many believe so ends their daily strife
All bad deeds, bad choices are gone
Starting this second, there is no wrong

At 12:01, a new year forges ahead
Kiss is shared, new resolutions said
Shouting and cheering for a blank slate
Unaware we aren't in charge of our fate

The question I pose may seem uncouth
But in its core lies the absolute truth
Days mix and flow on a constant stream
Arriving and departing as if in a dream

What we created in the time gone past
Remains a part of tomorrow's time blast
If you can make a promise of hope today
Why couldn't it have been made yesterday [comments] => 4 [counter] => 257 [topic] => 48 [informant] => dvtpdw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I could not agree more!

I could give an entire speech on the strike of the clock and the keeping of time but alas, I shall perhaps save that for another day.

Perfect flow and rhyme scheme. You're very talented at that.

Thank you,

Tim

Very good poem
The second to last day is important too
Why couldn't resolutions be made on that day
If we had decided to put New Years on that day
Would January first be still more important than December 28
