A Dash of Words with Loleta Abi Romance Author

Hello, my friends! Welcome to my blog.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. I’m feeling better and stronger every day and looking forward to the new year.

Today I’d like to share this lovely and inspirational New Year’s poem by Hope Galaxie. Enjoy!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

by Hope Galaxie

As the world celebrates
With fireworks and cakes
I’m standing here alone
Far away from home
With nothing but a suitcase and memories

As the stars surround me like water
I raise my hands in full surrender
To God, my Redeemer
Lord, this year is far from ordinary
I’ve never seen such extraordinary
People, places and things

Booming suddenly
Then vanishing instantly
Why waste time uselessly?
The old year came and went
I hope your time was…
