Partying

I've primped and I've powdered, with conceit, I confess.
I'm all glittered up in my new Christmas dress!
It's New Year's Eve and like you, I'm attending a party
Where I'll meet some old friends who are still hale and hearty
Enough to stay up past twelve on this day.
I don't mean midnight, it is noon when we play.

We're grandmas and grandpas and great grandparents too;
And even a great-great. I'm one. Guess you knew.
We time our celebrating to end before naps,
Our honoree laughs as she sits on our laps.
Our New Year's Eve baby is a year old today.
We're ready for napping. She's eager to play.

Dear little one you've had a year
To learn about the world.
Hope you've found it to your liking
As its wonders have unfurled.

You have so many folks who love you,
So many to make you smile.
We hope you'll be content to stay
Our little one for a while.

With love, Great Great Grandma Johnson

This is a two part poem of great contrast, very interesting the different perspectives you've combined here.

Happy New Year friend!

Moonbeams radiate
When the veiling cloud has passed
Playful shadows dance
