A New Year

Nothing beats going to watch the New Year's fireworks

The excitement of the people around you, dancing

Leaving behind a tingling sensation 


The feeling of the night air biting your skin

Watching the sky light up in a bout of colourful explosions

The fireworks bursting in a flurry of smoke and embers

The light odour of sulphur filling the atmosphere


The thrill of the night's events washing over 

In a sudden wave of exhaustion 

Eyes heavy, limbs sore 

Previous rush of adrenaline ebbing away


You make your way back home 

Anticipating the trials you will undoubtedly face

Yet, hopeful 

For the good memories you have yet to make


This is what New Years is all about
