Set the table, I mean stage mega cities on the rise new year celebrations I despise. money thrown away on the grandiose hopes blown up in smoke, I suppose... new year, new number rock and roll and clouds that thunder incantations, rivers of music forests of emerald light holiday bottles wrapped up sprite. line the party squares Oh, how I'm aware of the debonaire and village snares. Glitter, fuss and if you must work your way to the avenues of glee warm stages decked with festive fleas... and scratch behind your ears till the flea departs and eyes see tears, I will abstain from crowdy swamps that mire, gentle folk that work up sweat and perspire.

Martin darling boy, well at least you didn't wake up with a headache. Me neither, but then that's because I saw in the New Year in style, surrounded by my nearest and dearest. On the phones, on vid and with love. Have a great year kid, and keep writing, you rock Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

I don't see the reason for the Hoopalah especially this once a year thing...to me it's like living in Disney World..that's hitting hard, but that's my honest opinion..we've got too much to do the world over to set people's mind at ease that America is a good place to be rather than just crowd city squares at the turn of clock! That said I can still wish you all again Happy New Year, haven't been short of greeting people, Ebenezer scrooge is not living in my closet!lol |

ecrivan~First of all Happy New Year! I must agree with you about all the hype that happens at midnight each year...too much for me. I spent it on here with my Internet friends and a glass of bubbly. *waiting for a greeting from you that did not come* (smile) Although I am one of the first to admit that we Canadians are a little more reserved than our American friends...perhaps that has something to do with it? Good write my fellow Canadian! ~Warm New Year's Day Hugs, Nancy~ *~ Wishing everyone a New Year filled with Peace & Love ~* |

Enchantress, I think it is that we are less spend thrifty, less showy too, maybe I am wrong...cyberspace is the wrong place to be to relly get to somebody too!! |
