May the Year 2014 be…
One more opportunity to start afresh
One more milestone to measure success
To celebrate your victories and take account why you failed
To find new lands, bid bon voyage and sail
To new challenges, from new terminus we embark
One more chance to build new benchmarks
To sharpen your saw, to light new sparks
To find your own path, to create new landmarks
To outlive the old sloth, to embrace the new vim
To shed dullness from eyes, adorn the new gleam
To love, to give, to create, to rejuvenate and preen
Don’t live to die, live to immortalize and redeem
May you be you and yet so new
With aggression of a warrior and peace within you
With fire of a sun, yet placid like morning dew
May you be your own model and yet be so true
So use the dawn of 2014, to rise and exalt
To bury the outmoded, to liberate and absolve
To set a new goal, to make a new resolve
To begin a new journey, to grow and evolve
