The 31^st December Night

-         Foez M Rahim

Today in the New Year’s Eve

I am alone here in the roof,

Thinking about my memories

And the stars remain as proof.

The sun set, carrying some happy days along with it

As it was the last sunset of the year,

Leaving me for another time is this world

In front of the death, which now seems very near.

The sky is clear and the moon is full

I am wishing for every good work to do,

Wishing for some more successful happy days

And wishing a very Happy New Year to you.
