Auld Lang Syne - Land Ahoy

The Auld Lang Syne song evades me – I can never remember the words but the title of the song inspired this Acrostic Poem – “Land Ahoy” that I wish to share with you. I hope the message becomes clear and that it can play some part as you say goodbye to the old year and hello to 2010

 

Auld Lang Syne - Ahoy

 

Ahoy, he said, I can see land

Unable to get to shore, they needed a plan

Let the ship go closer to the reef

Don’t go to close or we might sink underneath

 

Life presents many places ahead where you must stop

And reefs of obstacles lay there where your anchor mustn’t drop

No warnings you’ll get until it’s too late

Got no lookout man on a flag pole to shout stop or wait

 

So now here comes land up ahead, new to all, 2010

You must disembark the old boat 2009 and you know exactly when

Night time when the clock strikes 12, 2009 will disappear

Emerging is 2010 and we all must embark on a New Year
