The New Year

Standing in the crowds
Flying through the clouds
Screams and cheers all around
Flashing lights all downtown

Parties have begun
Singing, dancing, music,
Fireworks as bright as the sun,
The celebration is magic­

The countdown clock appear
Five, four, three, two, one
The past is done
Happy New Year!
