		<description><![CDATA[I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
So I drank soda instead.
I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn&#8217;t drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hey, my lad, ho, my lad!
Here&#8217;s a New Broom.
Heaven&#8217;s your housetop
And Earth is your room.
Tuck up your shirtsleeves,
There&#8217;s plenty to do-
Look at the muddle
That&#8217;s waiting for you!
Dust in the corners
And dirt on the floor,
Cobwebs still clinging
To window and door.
Hey, my lad! o, my lad!
Nimble and keen-
Here&#8217;s your New Broom, my lad!
See you sweep clean.

		<description><![CDATA[ONLY a night from old to new!
Only a night, and so much wrought!
The Old Year&#8217;s heart all weary grew,
But said: The New Year rest has brought.&#8221;
The Old Year&#8217;s hopes its heart laid down,
As in a grave; but trusting, said:
&#8220;The blossoms of the New Year&#8217;s crown
Bloom from the ashes of the dead.&#8221;
The Old Year&#8217;s heart was [...]

		<description><![CDATA[At the sound of the tolling midnight bell
a brand new year will begin.
Let&#8217;s raise our hopes in a confidant toast,
to the promise it ushers in.
May your battles be few, your pleasure many,
your wishes and dreams fulfilled.
May your confidence stand in the face of loss
and give you the strength to rebuild.
May peace of heart fill all [...]

To recall the right and forgive the wrong;
To forget the things that bind you fast
To the vain regrets of the year that&#8217;s past;
To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the not worth while of the days grown old;
To dare go forth with a purpose true,

Stand out in the sunlight of promise, forgettingWhatever the past held of sorrow and wrong.We waste half our strength [...]
