Change in the Horizon

Tonight, the stars will be bewildered by the celebrations

Of change that we all seek passionately; drown the voices with noise

Some of the events would be arranged, some forgotten

Others scattered here and there, but the precious ones settled deep

As the darkness is lit up by smiles, prayers, and lights

There are those ripples of memories slowly playing with the mind

For now, the time has arrived, to say, “Goodbye”

As with little trepidations, the crowd urges to join the jubilation

All that the heart may have been tired of can now be forgotten

That invisible cord linking the new times is not important

For, now is not the time to iron out the past creases

If one believes in the birth of beginning from this tapering end

Let’s wish in harmony for everyone and a brilliant dawn
