New Years Eve....2013..................

Where have they gone...all the New Years past...in my teens they were spent with my sisters and two girl friends...thinking of boys was all we did...Elvis and Johnny Mathis...our 45 speed records did play...in love with love....you could say...and later with marriage and children to raise...my New Years Eve was a dress up event...with granny over to babysit...I'd have my rum and coke and dance till I was spent...now and then at home with the children we'd stay...they'd bang on pots and pans...happy to be up late...and See's chocolates we ate...now in my twilight years...content just to sit...and remember the past...the New Years so fun...so special...so filled with laughter and gayety...not a care in the world...for that evening sublime...It's good to go back and remember this time...now my children and grandchildren too...it's there turn to bring in their New Years and the memories they'll have...and to ponder someday...in their old age...all that they've had...so I wish you dear loved ones a Happy New Year...with peace on earth...'O that we would have it one day...................2013
