Shiny and Blue

 

By Bruce Clifford

Shiny and blue
Twenty twenty two
Another year gone
New days upon us

Having a last word
Facing the clock
Cutting the cord
Alongside the dock

Shiny and blue
A different point of view
Another night will pass
No time to rest

Reading an open book
What we gave and took
Looking for hope
The enormous scope

Shiny and red
Last words we all said
Another year gone
Lead the way and carry on

Shiny and blue
Twenty twenty two
A new day is here
Another new year
