Best New Years Eve Poems

Tis here, the eve of one day less
     Of sorrow lost and hope reborn
     If will brings us closer to our best
     What reasons leave us cause to mourn?

The doctors and nurses in the Emergency Room prepared themselves for the 
longest night of the year – New Year’s Eve going into New Years day.

As morbid as it may be, they even had a pool going to guess the time of the first 
alcohol...

Outside branches clawed the slate,
Dragging frosty talon nails,
Whilst high above the moon there sails
A silver jet on vapour trails;
Unknown, sat in her steely hull they wait,
Whoever they may be, they are,
The time-zone throng who travel far,
The riders of the shooting star.
Erased to faceless, sketchy visions,
Sped...

"Shall We Retourne Contest
French Retourne Poem
Sponsor: Debbie Guzzi

One night, holiday, New Years Eve,
The big ball drops down in Times Square,
Such a big crowd, hard to believe,
"Happy New Year" is then declared.

Wow, isn't Time Square just lovely?
Promises of resolutions,
New York always kept a big flare,
Until the...

NEW YEAR’S EVE DISASTER

Gaby was preening from four after noon,
New Year’s Eve and Vincent was due soon,
Had butterflies all day,
When he came what to say?
She was sassy, bold and in a swoon.

Vincent six foot four, Gaby just five foot,
How to kiss or dance, should be...

Whilst I lay in my bed, 
And reflect on my past
I remember that I want, 
Certain moments to last.
 
Like this evening tonight;
On New Years Eve;
We’re having too much fun
With much more to achieve!

For the New Year, is here!
And let it be said
’08 is now...

New Years Eve celebration
Ever so grateful of redemption 
With overindulgence of consumption

Year-end celebrating 
Edibles I've been craving
Aha so much champagne drinking
Recoup from stomach bloating
Swaying, light-headed teetering

Eek nightcaps of antacid
Verily, not so lucid
Eau de mornings, feeling putrid



For Francine Roberts' contest, "New Years Eve,"...

As the time winds down,
And the shots get more hectic,
My mind begins to scramble,
Now *****is getting skeptic,
At 5 I hear your voice,
I see your smile,
I feel your hate,
At 4 I feel Mary,
I feel Love,
But at it's fate,
At 3 I see you walking,
I see him walking,
I...

My New Years Eve,
I drank and i danced.
I smiled and laughed.
Had so much fun,
Had a blast.
With my family,
How i wished it would last.
Celebrateing new starts,
And new begingings,
As time had past.
My New Years Eve,
Started out great.
O how i love to celebrate.
Out with the old.
In with the...

Getting ready for a New Years chin dig 
I purchased a new fancy schmancy wig
and bubbly for chilling; 
I'm ready and willing
to pare, next year I'll be lank as a twig 

Santa needs a break from the Holiday
the left overs echo in the fridge, oh...

New Years Eve it’s party time
Sup the beer and drink the wine
Special meal with new made friends
Comedian, sometimes offends.

Food and dancing all the way
To give old year it’s last hooray
Music singing from the show
Songs and jokes and laughter flow

Countdown starts with 10 to go
Poppers an...

Long ago
On New Years Eve,
My life was forever changed
Touched by love and desire,
As it snowed that night
So long ago...

By beauty so great,
I've never forgotten it,
And the best thing is,
That now I know,

She is fine and well,
And lo and behold,
She remembers me,
And now I can tell...

Her...

Hot summer, holiday season:
Shopping done, we focus on fun,
Another year is the reason.
Hot summer - holiday season –
Humid, cloud, ninety degrees in,
Hot summer, holiday season;
Shopping done, we focus on fun.

Thunder and  light’ning New Year’s Eve, 
Mingled with fireworks is showing;
Weather and sparklers interweave.
Thunder and...

A bluebird came streaking violently out of Central Park,
it blurred over the lanes of traffic towards 220.
I flinched in anticipation of the impact,
but at the last second it darted directly up,
as if caught in a sudden wind current.
“Did you see that?” I asked Lisa.
She didn’t,...
