HAPPY TWENTY TWELVE! MMXII - ' Make Minds eXtremely Innocent Innate
The Year much awaited has come
New Year brings happiness Home
Amidst fears and predictions
Time for some humble restrictions
Hope the world thrives and prospers
As the new bell chimes and whispers
All thats worth and worthy for Earth
Shall be blooming and smiling after birth
Make Minds eXtremely Innocent Innate
Good sense of humour makes stress abate
World thrives on Faith and Love
Evergreen Bliss needs Everyone to involve
Twenty Twelve is the year to Evolve

One Year In Heaven
One year in heaven,
One year you've been there,
So far away,
Someday I'll see you in the air,
One year in heaven,
I miss you so much,
Smile down upon me,
And show me your love.
One year in heaven,
It seems like so long,
Since the last time I saw you,
And then you were gone,
One year in heaven,
You left earth to soon,
But I know they need you,
More then I do,
One year in heaven,
I'm alone on the earth,
I miss your sweet kisses,
And all that you're worth,
One year in heaven,
Is God really there?
Why did he take you,
As I cried in despair.
One year in heaven,
I still see your face,
The day that you took,
The last breath you would take,
One year in heaven,
Why did you die,
I know God needed you,
But still I cry.
One year in heaven,
Soon I'll be there,
So wait by the gate,
Please, this do swear,
One year in heaven,
To me it is long,
But you have no pain,
From this earth you have gone.
One year in heaven,
It's so hard to move on,
I'll send you a prayer,
And sing you a song,
One year in heaven,
Life's not the same,
Since you left this world,
I'm living in a daze.
One year in heaven,
You watch from above,
Sit there and smile,
And send me your love,
One year in heaven,
You may think it's just a day,
But this world is so different,
Since God took you away

A Faithful Witness
To the firstborn of Yahseph,
Of all that is created;
To the secondborn of Yahseph,
Do set set your mind on Mount Zion;
For His name is His glory and,
Of the economic well-being.
Of the year of the rat,
Of the year of the dog,
Of the year of the cow,
Of the year of the bull,
Of the year of the sheep,
Of the year of the dragon,
Of the year of the snake,
Of the year of the pig,
Of the year of the goat,
Of the year of the lizard,
Of the year of the crocodile,
Of the year of the elephant,
Of the year of the scorpion,
Of the year of the turtle,
Of the year of the fish,
Of the year of the earth,
Of the year of the wind,
Of the year of the fire,
Of the year of the water,
And of the year of the bush!
Like the firstborns of slaves.
The hips of romance,
The faithful witness will not lie;
The same day,
The same night,
Of the love shared at where no oxen are;
And the crib was very clean.

Happy New Year Everyone
As we venture towards another year,
I sit and reflect on the passing one.
A year that has been filled
with surprises from start to finish.
The biggest surprise
is the love and friendship
that has greeted me
from all the four corners of the world.
My cup runneth over
with the joys that it has brought
to this heart of mine.
It is hard to believe
and I am still pinching myself
to prove that it is real.
I could never have imagined
at this time last year. (2006)
that I would be writing this
to say thank you to everyone.
The joy of just one friend
is something to rejoice for,
but to having hundreds
is surely a blessing from God.
This year has taught me
many things about my life
and the way we should live.
Caring for others,
everyone we meet,
stretching out a helping hand
to everyone in need.
Never giving cross words,
there is no need for them,
when our love
will always make amends.
So yes, this passing year to me
has been a very memorable one.
Into the next, I’ll stride
with hope that I can help more
than I did this year.
Making more people smile
and bring more love and good cheer.
To all my friends out there
around the world
I am wishing you
a very happy and prosperous
New Year (2008) ahead.
If it is to be,
like this year for me.
It will certainly be a good
and Happy New Year indeed.
Happy New Year Everyone
Love and Hugs

Happy New Year 2012 (a song)
Happy New Year, Two Thousand Twelve!
With hope anew, let us all delve;
Forget the past year’s woes galore;
To each, God opens newer door!
Happy New Year, resolve sans fears;
Pray God should give all lesser tears;
Why waste money going to moon?
Our earth is wealthy, great a boon!
Happy New Year, aim to labour;
To brethren, no hatred harbour;
To share our love, God wants us to;
The rest of things, He’ll surely do!
Happy New Year, give others joy;
Obey your parents, if girl or boy;
Pray God gives leaders, clear minds, hearts;
You give your mite and do your parts!
Happy New Year, live and let live;
Help the poor; to God, glory give;
This earth can turn a Paradise,
If toil can all, becoming wise!

On the Eve of the New Year,2012
Whatev’r the old year had to say, it said!
Whatev’r the past year had to bring, it brought!
Whatev’r the past, let memories good stay;
Let strife that came, embolden hearts and minds!
The old year had its good and bad well-mixed;
Let’s hope the New Year brings more joy and smiles;
Let dreams unfulfilled become realities;
Let world brazen itself for newer feats!
Yet, sense of values must prevail in life;
A moralistic society must grow;
The youth today must make better adults;
World nations must have ties of love and peace!
Let carnal needs not supercede the soul’s!
Let human lives remain priceless, sacred;
Let leaders not waste wealth for vain glory;
Let God remain foremost in endeavours!
Let downtrodden receive more attention;
Let terrorism weeds be pulled by roots;
Let physically challenged get more aid;
Let love exchanges greet the human race!

Dawns a New Year (2010)
The Old Year cruises smoothly off;
The New Year dawns across the globe;
It brings its surprises many –
Some of which we may like, dislike!
But this is how the world goes on;
The old must give in to things new,
As people wish for better days,
And give up bad habits and ways!
But toil is key to success prime;
Our resolutions must be good;
Keep to the ear-marked road, we must,
Till aims are accomplished with ease.
Keep God as guide in endeavors;
Let righteousness rule hearts and minds;
With morality, good ethics
And sense of values, forge ahead.
Let marriage keep its definition;
Let sex become not perverted;
Let life be revered right from womb;
Let sweet and healthy be each home.
Let love of brethren take first place;
Let peace prevail ’midst nations all;
Let charity to poor bring bliss,
Invoking blessings of Heaven.

A Year and A Day
A year and a day
Are all that lay
Between me and
My love
A year and a day
Three months 'til May
The year leaping
Above
A year and a day
You scorn to say
Is destiny
Belov'd
A year and a day
I slight cliché
This puzzle I
Speak of
A year and a day
Do not delay
Migrate to me
My dove
A year and a day
No time astray
Like seconds that
I shove
A year and day
From the same clay
You claim you are
Void of
A year and a day
All night I pray
That you would be
My love

New Year,2010 – Boon or Bane?
And when the clock strikes twelve midnight,
The Old year makes o’er for the New,
Heralded by much revelry,
Fire-works, sound and light with dance,
And music of great decibels,
That fills the air of cities, towns,
Where exotic foods, wine are served!
Most people are in festive mood,
As roads are thronged by surging crowds
Of merry-making, young and old,
Who embellish the change in time
That history makes throughout the world,
Forgetting all the past year’s woes,
Enjoying ecstasied moments!
But these are fleeting hours of life
Replaced by stark realities,
That wakes up persons from their ‘dreams’,
And puts them back upon the lanes
Of darkness, drudgery and grief,
Reminding transience of life
On earth as if it was worthless!
And things are same for poor brethren,
As richer nations waste huge sums,
In pomp and show and wars futile,
To worsen plight of poorer ones
And do a name-sake charity
To show the world, they care for all –
An act of trickery so fine!
Is the New Year then a boon or bane?
Let leaders question their own hearts
And feel remorse for foolish acts,
And past decisions taken wrong,
That made the air and water foul,
And resources scarcer with time,
And living, miserable for all.
Will New Year give a better deal
For children, women, challenged souls –
Who find the world unfair, cruel,
Who plead to God for better days,
Who bear the ignominy deep,
Who live their lives like dumb, maimed beasts,
Hoping the morrow brings reprieve?
Let New Year make people rethink
On how to make the world better
For mankind all, and progeny,
By spreading peace and harmony,
Through dialogues amidst nations,
Averting holocausts and wars,
Those steal lives and commodities!
Let New Year instill hope in all –
Who toil but earn a pittance just,
Who run from pillar to new posts,
Who cannot get a meal a day,
Who are half-clothed and without roof,
Who fall in debt-traps, so ruthless,
Who wonder if God does exist?
Let New Year make all righteous,
And fill all minds with fortitude,
And fill hearts with love for neighbors,
Elderly and even strangers;
And prove the fact that God is one,
Who is pro-life and cares for all,
Especially the womb’s unborn!
Let New Year bring blessings from God;
Let wisdom rule all human acts;
Let heinous crimes be things of past;
Let terrorists be stifled soon;
Let nukes be dismantled off fast;
Let marriage, sex remain sacred;
Let dignity of life be prime!
Is the New Year boon or bane, now ask?
Is world now better place to live?
Is lasting peace now felt by all?
Is brotherhood of nations true?
Is love the balm that soothes people?
Is earthly life now worth living?
Is earth a real paradise?
Let Twenty Ten be the New Year
That brings all souls nearer to God,
And earth’s sky closer to Heaven,
And earth-filled people who rejoice,
Regretting not for being born,
But praising God for being made
‘Homo sapiens, ’ man or woman!
‘Happy New Year,2010 to all! ’

Hoping Of Happy New Year
Hoping of happy New Year
The year has passed
The New Year has arrived
All the pains sadness and angriness has become past
All the happiness, sweetness and love has arrived
All the sickness, Madness and childness has gone
All the matureness, intelligence and hopes has arrived
My all the things are now my past
My all concentration is just focusing on future
New Year has arrived with hope
A hope of goodness in everything
A hope that my country will be in peace
A hope that all problems may come with a simple solution
May my all the relations become more sweet and loveable?
May my all pathetic memories be just past
May my life be quite simple
May my life be full of joy
Past year is a past don’t matter what was it
But the future is unknown and unseen
Don’t know that what will happen
Just hope that everything will be good and ok
So I hope that every hope will not just hope
Hope we can say next year with hope that Happy New Year

Wishful Thinking.
.
The old year’s coming to its end.
Few will be sad to see it go.
We greet the New Year as a friend
We live in hope but cannot know.
If the New Year will prove to be.
A year in which we can achieve.
Our cherished dreams successfully.
Though some have doubts most can believe.
Despite their past experience
of disappointments they have known
They set aside their common sense
and are sustained by faith alone.
It seems we all prefer to see.
The New Year optimistically.

Year After Year: A Love Song.
YEAR after year the cowslips fill the meadow,
Year after year the skylarks thrill the air,
Year after year, in sunshine or in shadow,
Rolls the world round, love, and finds us as we were.
Year after year, as sure as birds' returning,
Or field-flowers' blossoming above the wintry mould,
Year after year, in work, or mirth, or mourning,
Love we with love's own youth, that never can grow old.
Sweetheart and ladye-love, queen of boyish passion,
Strong hope of manhood, content of age began;
Loved in a hundred ways, each in a different fashion,
Yet loved supremely, solely, as we never love but one.
Dearest and bonniest! though blanched those curling tresses,
Though loose clings the wedding-ring to that thin hand of thine,--
Brightest of all eyes the eye that love expresses!
Sweetest of all lips the lips long since kissed mine!
So let the world go round with all its sighs and sinning,
Its mad shout o'er fancied bliss, its howl o'er pleasures past:
That which it calls love's end to us was love's beginning:--
I clasp my arms about thy neck and love thee to the last.

A New Year
We stand on the threshold of a new year
and what will it bring,
misery, heartaches or happiness and love?
The future is not ours to see
and what lies ahead is a mystery
that is never solved until it evolves.
With all the blessings shared,
we can only hope that it will
be better than the last,
that all the good things will inherit our lives.
It is hope shared by millions as each New Year arrives.
Let us all hope that this New Year
will be the best in our lives.
Happy New Year and God Bless

Fruit of Earth
The winds that blow about the world
(Said Old George Jones)
See here all hope to ruin hurled,
See there triumphant flags unfurled,
Over chance-favored zones.
And no man's wisdom, no man's might
Foresees, much les controls
Some little breeze born of the night
That brings perchance a sudden blight
Or balm for tortured souls.
But growin' things and sowin' things
And watchin' of 'em grow
Not hastenin' things or slowin' things
Nor seekin' to be knowin' things
That men may never know.
'Tis so the kind earth pays a man
'Tis so content is made.
Not work, but worry slays a man;
I take what tricks Fate plays a man
An' sticks to Adam's trade.
The fears that creep about the earth
Vague fears and short-lived joys
What in reckonin' are they worth?
Too quickly swayed by grief or mirth
We live like foolish boys.
Year in, year out, earth mothers us
And offers livelihood,
This year ill fortune bothers us
Next year her bounty smothers us:
The sum of all is good.
'Tis futile man proposes things;
But Nature goes her ways
And God alone disposes things,
And Time alone discloses things
That rule our future says.
Earth yields me her fertility
And till she takes my bones,
I'll nought of man's futility.
For peace bides in humility
(Said Old George Jones).

A Special New Year 1-1-11
A goodbye to a confused decade, goodbye to a year
As the weary old year wanes, bringing me a sad tear
History receives a turbulence filled decade and a 2010
...Many memories special to treasure, some laden with pain
The painful past should not, no longer must revive
For happiness to blossom, a journey magically will survive
Running out of years, my ebony black hair turns silver
The insensitive clock chimes to unfold another dawning year
A beautiful fleet and a majestic dignified display
For many decades to surface, with a radiance sail
With Two thousand and eleven wishes and many more
Wishing you my dears peace love and happiness galore
Many sweet dreams cherish smiling in good cheer
The wonderful world, family friends to greet the new

Wishing All Our Sri Lankans blessings for A Great Year….
A beautiful Island glitters, a serenity filled atmosphere
The advancing IT world, Lankans steady in their progress
Loyal devoted our Sri Lankans rise above the trivial mess
The day dawns and united we see another old year out
As we prepare to welcome a new start without fear no doubt
A new beginning we hope and pray forever together we stand
The curtain falls on another year to bring in a wonderland
The Auspicious time rings in the Aluth Avruddha 2012 Year
Dear Sri Lankans may you have Happy and a Colorful New Year
The joys the laughter our children live, so effortlessly learn
Is the best we give our children of what we strive to earn
Our traditional food we never fail to make on this day
We share the same feeling no matter where our homes stay
Sri Lankans our journey is filled with sweets and cakes
The Kaum Kokis and many a things we share as we make
So heres a toast to all our Sri Lankans stationed wherever you are
Exchange of gifts, fragrance of love never dims though many miles afar
Chocolates goodies we never fail to enjoy despite the cost
Entertainment is what we so desire and happiness is hardly lost
The evergreen memories is what we always.. ever treasure
Luxury is not what we seek to fill our lives, tis just temporary pleasure
Together we join hands from different paths of this earth
because Its Mother Lanka the land of our birth the best on earth!

Now That The Year Is Growing Kind Of Old (Envelope Couplet Sestets)
Now that the year is growing kind of old
when the true story of Jesus we are told,
we are living up to a day of giving
while daily we hear joyful birds singing
as when they did that child once behold,
now that the year is growing kind of old.
Now that the year is growing kind of old
our Christian faith we do at times uphold
while to others we bring some happiness
like messengers of God we try to bless,
sing happy songs on each friendly threshold,
now that the year is growing kind of old.
Now that the year is growing kind of old
while some live sheltered in a stronghold
in a world of chaos there is tranquillity,
when in God we find some serenity,
in our own lives we act cheerful and bold,
now that the year is growing kind of old.
Now that the year is growing kind of old
in our lives God’s blessings are manifold,
while merrily bells do jingle and chime,
we tell of loving that goes past all time,
we celebrate Christmas in each household,
now that the year is growing kind of old.
