Cusp

[Johntee]

Hold the World upon the cusp.
Too late it rolls over into timeless

Past, forgetting what has gone.
Tomorrow may be worse
Yet from Sydney to

Ras al Khaima

Fireworks
Fountain
To urge it on.
In Times Square

Crowds countdown
Three, two one in unison.
A link of hands ushering "Old

Lang Syne" while already, beyond

The dawn, rockets flare and drones fly again.

Your creative formatting makes me smile...while the subject matter here gives pause for reflection...still, I choose to remain hopeful. Happy New Year, poet friend!
