BY ISABEL PERRY
Grade 6
E.P.S.
January first is New Years Day,
When all the children sing and
Play,
And all the parents watch and
cheer,
This joyous time comes once a
year.
This New Years Day brings hope
for all.
For whether you are large or
small,
The new year is before you now,
Fresh for you to make your vow
The only way to start your day
Is when you're down you knee]
and pray.
