Annus Mirabilis
By: Noah Eaton
12/31/00

It’s been another year of wonders, and there is reason to suppose
That maybe the next year will be even better than this one
You’re incarcerated in a situation you can’t get out of, but who knows?
I believe you will break out of it very soon and you will find yourself rejoicing with the sun

This year was definitely a joyful year for me
It wouldn’t have been if I had never meet all you wonderful friends
I would had still been down on my knees, wounded, bled of all my hope and sanity
Oh, how could I ever begin to thank you for saving my life and true amends

I love you all so much, I can’t even begin to tell you how happy you’ve all made me
I know now that I am not alone, and I will always have friends, and you are one of them
I now look to the future, seeing great possibilities, willing to face the obstacles in store for me
While I am stand here in the shoes of a new me, only filled with love and am cheerfully destined

And I look upon those whose hearts have broken and love has been lost
And you feel like you are disintegrating into the vapor clouds above you, like a ghost
Just remember that I’ll always be your friend, all is never lost
Just pull yourself together and see the great possibilities ahead you, sweetness comes to whoever needs it the most

And there is never any such thing as someone without a true love to love
Everyone belongs to one another, God would never make lonely souls
If you are one of those broken hearts, look at yourself, there is true love for you and there will always be enough
It is never too late to seek it, I give you total faith and hope you will find it soon in the next annus mirabilis
I am sure of that…

It is still the fire that burns
And the mind that learns
And the rain that falls
And the correcting of our faults
And the train that moves
And the ocean that soothes
And the magic of love that swims high above
As we enter the next millennium…

It’s been another year of wonders, and maybe next year will be better than this one
We may not know what to expect or what is ahead, but I am sure it’s full of wonders
I’m still searching for my first, and hopefully, one true love
Maybe next year I will find her…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well said, a perfect reflection on the past as we head towards the future. Really enjoyed the poem, HAPPY NEW YEAR to you.
