Happy New Yearby Erick Ritchie

Erick Ritchie 荀木子

Let us all gather round and cheer，

With a drink of wine or an ice cold beer.

Perhaps you are like me and dont drink the swill （猛喝），

Or you like my grandparents who live on pills.

Maybe this world seems harsh of times，

Or its just that most of us just like to whine （抱怨）.

Id say that this is a great place to be，

It all depends on how we can see.

True weve had bad things in the past，

But we know in our hearts that these will not last.

If we try our best to be simple and pure.

Theres nothing our hopes and dreams cannot cure.

So， I dont know the value this is worth，

But lets all try to be happy and heal Mother Earth！

Happy New Year！
