Behold this day a year anew Regale the dawn with welcome tide What e’er tomorrow may ensue Cast yesterday’s lament aside Regale the dawn with welcome tide Pine not for auld lang syne now spent Cast yesterday’s lament aside Apprised from time in precedent Pine not for auld lang syne now spent Life’s guarantee by moments found Apprised from time in precedent There’s surety in life’s redound Life’s guarantee by moments found Rejoice in each new morning ray There’s surety in life’s redound Foresee ahead enlightened day Rejoice in each new morning ray Futurity’s from past defined Foresee ahead enlightened day Embrace the new with open mind Futurity’s from past defined What e’er tomorrow may ensue Embrace the new with open mind Behold this day a year anew… Happy New Year Everyone!!!Drive Safely |

Happy New Year to you as well This is phenomenally written and I love the technique you used by using the second line of each stanza and placing it as the first line in the next and so on...you make it look so easy and it flows like a song, and yet I know that it's a challenge to do. You're one of the masters of perfect rhyme!
