New Year's eve

2020 a time of shock
world vengeance to boot
cooking too much
people starving
and dying of Covid-19

2021 a time of hope
with vaccines out of trials
still drinking too much
(at least on eve of the new)
dying and giving birth

where have I feasted
in the past of New Years
in  hotels - dancing - 
tapping the night away
drying out and coping

where else - quiet years
not many - in air plaines
in NYC Times Square
Kennedy Center
cold with fireworks

so this year's eve tomorrow
will be in Covid's plans
I shall be home doing
tv - having a bottle of fizz
and thinking of you!
