WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES

 

When the clock strikes

The midnight hour

One year ends

And another begins

With an explosion

Of pyrotechnic splendour

Lavishly ostentatious

Many thousands of pounds

Up in smoke

Is it really worth it?

Would it not be better spent?

On the homeless

And the lost

And so begin a new year

With new hope
