For The Year 2025 (By Several Poets)

(Background music)

Part I: Call of Duty to Love and Clarity (by O. C. Isaac)

All flows, all changes, a river unceasing,

Guard well the quiet within, your peace ever-increasing.

Linger with your loved ones, hold them near,

And to the friend true today, make your love clear.

For in this fleeting moment, hearts intertwine,

Speak now, while their hands are still in yours, divine.

Part II: Year’s End! (by O. C. Isaac)

As the year draws near its close,

With fleeting time,

The river flows.

Moments come, some fade away,

Others linger, long to stay.

Each dawn, a gift, each dusk, a sigh.

The stars look on, as seasons fly.

What we’ve lost and what we’ve gained,

Through laughter, tears, and lessons retained.

Let it come, this final day,

Let the past dissolve, give way.

To dreams unknown, to paths untried,

A brand-new year, a hopeful guide.

So bid adieu, and welcome cheer,

To what awaits in the coming year.

Whatever stays, embrace, hold tight,

Whatever fades, dissolve in light.

Let Us (by John J. Duran)

Let us build,

Not for profit but for life's own common welfare.

Let us grow, not for greed, but to combat hunger and despair.

Let us share, not for selfishness, but for common cate.

Let us craft wonders,

And together we can build a new Eden with sweat!
