A New Years gone viral

Sung to the tune of "Auld Lang Syne"

I can't believe..it's New Year's Eve..Yes..it's just..one day away!

No need to laugh..my paragraph..started off with a CLICHE!!

Who CAN'T "believe" time marches on?? It DOES!! Year after year!

But now..because of Omicron..there won't be..a lot..of cheer..

we won't be playing party games.

drunk twits won't slur our names

we won't be donning party hats..we won't vow.. to give up fats..

we won't be blowing streamers with..our forty closest friends

you know Time's Square?? We won't be there!!

wearing parkas and "Depends"

We won't praise hosts who pop the cork..

envying brave folks in New York

won't dine or shop..or watch balls drop

or greet first babes from the stork

I never liked that phrase, "ball drop"

I'll use it now and then..

it might describe..SOUP... (for my tribe.)

or the testes of old men..

We'll probably stream old "SNLS"..just to hear the late Don Pardo

with any luck..(We're old as f*ck!!) We'll remember Guy Lombardo

We all deserve  some  hot hors d'oeuvres..we all.. deserve a crowd

but not this year..the plague's still here:(

so big parties aren't allowed

We won't be talking politics..how much we miss Obama..

what's to discuss..when it's just us..in a nightgown and pajamas?

No making resolutions that..we all break in a week

I guess the best solution's just to see this year..as... unique..

so everyone..just make it fun!

and don't feel too bad when

you just..give up..and kiss your pup

as you're both asleep by ten

Happy New Year, Facebook Friends!
