 </div><p></p>On the wings of the wind<br>
Wheel it away<br>
2016 and all its strings<br>
Toss it away into past days<br>
Let it down at the occident<br>
With the slow death of the day
<p>And on the dock of the dawn<br>
Break it upon me, 2017<br>
Come right on<br>
With the crescent birth of the morning</p>
<p>From the ends in the east<br>
Bring along your yeast<br>
Let it sweeten and season<br>
My days in the horizon</p>
<p>From the coast<br>
Come, cover me<br>
With your thick coat<br>
And keep away stinging bees</p>
<p>Bring plenty showers<br>
Let it grow my greens<br>
And make my seeds flower<br>
To make many cuisines</p>
<p>Also, let out plenty sunshine<br>
As sixteens we need it to shine<br>
But also the woodlands,<br>
They need it for their wine and dines</p>
<p>And when your course is due<br>
Be gone like the morning due<br>
Until then, I’m thankful<br>
For the cruise in 2016<br>
And the hopes of 2017</p>
