The Magic of The New Year

A canvas lies blank, a story not yet told,

with dreams and hopes, the future to unfold.

The clock strikes twelve, voices sing with joyful cheer,

are you wondering, are you ready to be here?

You can let go now, all that is done,

The shadows of last year, no more need to outrun.

Welcome this dawn, your heart is ready,

your strength, your courage holds you steady.

So let your light shine, there’s no need to hide,

joy is within you, new year Magic on your side.
