2009 was eventful. Grievances were many and terror keeps haunting. Let’s hope 2010 ushers in a brand new order of love, peace and unity among the nations of this world. Hope is still alive and the way to peace is not lost. Somewhere in the forest of our vicissitudes, there is a clearing, directing our footsteps toward peace that seems so far away.

The New Year is in

                       with spectacular bang! 

Chiming the entrance

                        of 2010.

Let’s hope the war

                         and terror will end 

Though we know not how;

                          we know not when.

There’s so much to do

                           we haven’t yet done 

The burden being heavy

                             as heavy can be;

Terror keeps digging in,

                              stubborn and free.

Hope hasn’t faded;

                                peace isn’t tossed;

Let’s look for a clearing;

                                 the way isn’t lost.

The sun shall keep shining;

                                  shadows shall pass;

When heaven shall scatter

                                   the clouds en masse.

Here’s hoping that soon,

                                    we know not when

Peace and prosperity shall

                                     reign once again.
