And so another year has slipped on past
We wonder what we've learned and what it means
and whether what we've done is meant to last
Replaying last year's memories and scenes
before our life demands and intervenes
How did the year live up to what we planned?
What do we see behind us where we stand?
We should not mourn the year that's come and gone
The cards were dealt and so we played the hand
New year, new hand and so the game goes on.

I had to mortgage Baltic Avenue last year. Next year my goal is land on Free Parking!
Maybe we can get a free shuffle if the new year doesn't quite start off well!! Great poem
The cards have been dealt and the hand has been played, now if we could get more to play the same card game called the game of human kindness.
Happy or at least a fair shake New Year, Lolamouse.

Everyone but the Mayans

Yes, indeed. I love the fresh feeling of January 1st. A whole year ahead to unfold before us. We shall write our way through!
So very true. No point in regrets, best to look forward.
Here is to a wonderful fun and creative 2012. And to lovely bloggy friends
Oh lawsy. So many card related remarks popped into my head.
But I'll just hold my hand over my mouth so I don't get decked. (grin)
I like this! Interesting form.
After some middle of the road hands, I've finally been dealt the good stuff! Looking forward towards the next hand...
