It's almost time! We are exactly just two hours away now! My first poem of 2016 will be posted at midnight. I hope you will like this new New Years themed poem!

It's called, "A New Beginning", and I just wrote it today.

Only 160 minutes to go! 2015 is just about over.

Happy New Year eve!

Well, 2016 is just a couple of hours away now. I hope everyone has had a nice New Years eve today, and a nice year. 2015 is just about over; I hope 2015 was good to you and I hope 2016 will be even better!

Earlier today I posted a poem titled "Old Years Day", in celebration of New Years eve.  There will be another poem to celebrate the New Year and ring in 2016. This new New Years poem will be posted at 12:00am tonight and will be the first poem I post for 2016.

"Old Years Day" poem, Happy New Years eve!

Hope everyone is having a nice New Years eve!  Here is a poem I wrote today in celebration of New Years eve, it's called "Old Years Day". Enjoy!

Old Years Day

By: Vickram Bachan

 

 

And so, another year has passed us by,

Will everyone keep their resolutions? I'm sure they'll try.

 

While another year is gone, it is not dead,

The memories made will remain in our heads.

 

Old memories will be cherished and stay in our hearts,

While new memories are ahead as the New year starts.

 

Christmas was just less than a week ago,

New years day comes, with fireworks bright as snow.

 

Tomorrow is New Years day, and the dawn of a new year,

Let us hope and pray it will be filled with cheer.

 

 

"Holiday Aftermath" Boxing Day poem

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas yesterday!  I just came up with this brand new poem today. I was going to save it until next years Boxing Day to post and share because I shared one with this theme already for today/this year. But, as I mentioned before, December 26, 2016 is a full twelve months away, and I just wanted to share it now. So, here it is! Enjoy!

Holiday Aftermath

By: Vickram Bachan
 

 

It's the day after Christmas

and all around the world,

Boxing day sales are happening

and ribbons are uncurled.

 

Stores are having sales

and everywhere is getting busy,

While lights still burn bright

on every Christmas tree.

 

Everyone enjoys their new presents;

the now unwrapped gifts they got the night before,

Some stay home, enjoying the holiday

while others rush to stores.



As the Christmas season

comes to a close,

We look at the decorations

before everything goes.

We look at them one last time
as everything glows,
Seeing the care that put them up
all the time and effort shows.

 

Soon everything will be taken down

until next year,

Before we know it, twelve months will go by

and the Holidays will once again be here

 

As the new year approaches

just one week away,

We look forward to one more

celebration to end the holidays.

 

 

"The Day After Christmas" poem, Happy Boxing Day!

Happy Boxing Day everyone!  I hope you've all had a safe and restful day.

Originally the final poem I was going to post for this year was the Christmas one I posted yesterday, "Christmas Morning". But, sometimes plans change. I thought since we are still a week away from the new year, and there's really no point or reason making you all wait till 2016 for more of my poetry. We still have time for a bit more. So, surprise! Here is a new poem for you all to enjoy!

 The Day After Christmas

By: Vickram Bachan

 

T'was the day after Christmas, and all through the country,

Boxing day sales were happening and lines were getting pushy.

 

Items were sold at low prices,

From toys and clothes, to electronic devices.

 

People awake happily, thinking of the night before,

Some energetic, others a bit hung-over.

 

People continue the party, and celebrate the holidays,

while the snow continues to fall as always.

 

As everyone prepares to wrap-up the holiday season,

They celebrate a bit more, without any reason.



I wrote this poem back in the summer of 2012. Unfortunately we didn't get a white Christmas this year, in fact we hardly got any cold weather in December at all this year. I also have another Boxing Day poem that I just came up with today; I was going to save it until next years Boxing Day, but December 26, 2016 is literally and exactly a whole full year away, and I just want to share it now. So, I'll be posting it a little later.  It's called, "Holiday Aftermath" check back in an hour or so, it'll be posted soon!

 

"Christmas Morning" poem, Merry Christmas!

I hope everyone has had a wonderful and blessed Holiday season, and I hope the magic of Christmas finds you all well!

I hope 2015 has been a great year for everyone and I hope 2016 will be an even better one! I also hope that you have enjoyed all the poems I've posted this year, there's lots more to come next year!
So, to end the year and to celebrate the Holidays, here is a new Christmas poem; it is also the last poem I'll be posting for 2015.  Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Christmas Morning

By: Vickram Bachan

T'was Christmas morning
when I awoke from my sleep,
I rose from my bed,
and down the stairs I began to creep.

Dreaming of Santa Claus
the night before,
Knowing that he'd come
but wouldn't use the door.

Presents were wrapped
and placed under the tree on the floor,
While wreaths were hung
on the center of the door.

The cookies and milk were gone
that I left on Christmas eve night,
As the snow began to fall
all bright shiny and white.

While the snow fell
with no end in sight,
I enjoyed the white Christmas
with delight.

Feeling happy and blessed
to be home on this day,
Celebrating the birthday
of the Man to whom we pray.


I hope you all liked this poem; it was actually written back in March. To be exact, I wrote it back on Saturday March 21 2015 at 4:52am when I couldn't sleep and had nothing else to do. I have been saving it since then and keeping it quiet, eagerly waiting for this day to share it with all of you!

NEW Christmas poem coming soon!

I have a brand new Christmas poem for you all coming soon! It will be posted either on Christmas eve this coming Thursday, or on Christmas day this coming Friday. Either way, check back for a new Christmas poem!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful and joyous Holiday season!

Seasons Greetings!!!!
