Happy New Year From Me To You

To You:

The clock will spin forward tonight
marking another passage
Humanity hoping for the bright
The future turns present.

You will breathe fresh new Air
with dreams renewed
vows declared
forever.

But 'ere this change occurs
Look back a bit and see
Your smile finding me
caused my heart sweet purrs.

Back and forth we ride
o're the years and decades
whilst we laughed and cried
we enjoy each others visage.

Remember before we knew
each others dreams and wants
While still we could enchant
ourselves with future views?

Champagne, party favors
The dress fits round the waist
Midnight kisses, lovers wishes
Lips meld with all pleasures.

Forward we go now
Backwards do we leave
Our lives upon our daring sleeve
Our future pushing at the prow.
