The harrowing days of the year just gone
have ended, we trust, and wait for new dawn
with renewed bang to welcome the new year.
We know very well and quite aware that
Not much has changed, but certainly the date
So let’s change our attitude to brace our fate.
Let’s welcome year Twenty Twenty- six
With a hope, it will not bring more jinx
The year just gone by, witnessed conflicts
Escalation of Iran-Israel, Russia -Ukraine wars
Bangladesh’s ethnic cleansing of minorities
Gunmen’s frenzy firing in India and Australia.
With crazy ideas and the cranky numbers
Widespread tantrum of US tariffs
Disrupted global trade and triggered woes
Put the diplomacy with nations on its toes
Let’s Wish the impasse soon belays.
Year Twenty Twenty- five is finally ending
With a gloomy whimper and a forlorn sigh
So let Twenty Twenty-six enter banging
With a note that’s bold, beautiful and flies high.
