Themed Writing Contest #18

 

Theme: New Year

 

 

It can be in the form of a haiku, limerick, free expression, short stories, microfics, or whatever you feel like! It can be funny, scary, serious, or sad. You set the mood! Surprise me people! I look forward to it.

 

Either write about how excited you are for the New Year, or how excited you are that 2016 is over!

Entries:

 

Entry 1

Spoiler

Sometimes the year is so rough,
And seeing it through can be tough.
But no matter the fears
Or how many tears,
We can stand through the worst kind of stuff.

 

Entry 2

Spoiler

tick tick tick

the clock inches slowly forward
creeping ever closer to midnight

tick tick tick

your eyes fixed on the second hand
anxiously awaiting the chimes

tick tick tick

midnight
the moment arrives
excitement
jubilation

another new year

 

Entry 3

Spoiler

The new year is almost here
Does it fill you with cheer?

To know that 2016 is nearly done,
A year that all have begun to shun.

2017 couldn't really come too soon
At least to tragedy we're now immune.

2016 was the year of the crazy
Perhaps that's the fault of the lazy

Regardless of your emotion toward this year
Enjoy yourself, have another beer.

New year is a time for celebration
After all, it can't be worse than castration.

 

Entry 4

Spoiler

It's all just bullshit, you know

I'll just stay the same
