Many years ago there was a group of friends
They would meet from time to time throughout the year
But once a year they would party like no other.....
Long finery to beat that of Cinderella
Champagne flutes overflowing
Music to delight the ear and get the feet tapping
Tables overflowing with food
Chatter, long into the night
Late to bed
Very late to rise
And then....
Everyone got married, and late nights were no longer a feasible option! How much better to share New Year with the family. Cosy and at home, looking back on last year and ahead to next
Happy New Year everyone

mmm champagne flutes overflowing, cheers!
so true, so true. For the past couple of years I babysat on New Years for the GS's, I probably had just as much fun as their parents and didn't wake up with a pounding headache! :))
It gets tougher every year to stay up later so it certainly is best to just enjoy the evening at home with family! Hope you have a wonderful new year!
Hehe - I will not stay up any later than usual - and will spend Jan. 1 with my sister and brother-in-law for the family tradition of watching the Rose Bowl Parade *winks* without commentary =p and with cinnamon buns!
LOL! So very true! I sometimes miss my New Year's Eve parties!
What a sweet little poem :)
I definitely agree that time spent cosy at home is the best!
