Into the New Year
#YearEndEchoes

Mama is washing the dirty linens
says they must not go with her into the new year;
Papa is mending some damaged stuff
says they must not go with him into the new year;
Brother is discarding some awful junks
says they must not go with him into the new year;
Sister is replacing some old possessions
says they must not go with her into the new year.

And ecstatic me has a lot to wash and a lot to mend
I have a lot to discard and a lot to replace
I say they must not go with me into the new year;
Goodbye to my good self
for a new year arrives with a better me;
Dear, would you please strut with me into the new year?
