A Calligram

A chapter in the book Little Poems

Happy New Year

by Treischel

It's out with the old,
in with the new.
Make it snappy!




I did this one on a challenge/inspiration from our fellow Fanstorian, Pantytgynt. Took a few days to work it out.

This is a Calligram.
A Calligram is a poem that is also an image, through the organization of words only.

For those who can't quite make out the words, it reads;

Happy New Year!

Celebrate the final ending of that tired old year.
Old man time
is past his prime,
and waiting for that replacement to appear.

So, let's pop that champagne cork,
while the ball is dropping in New York.

New Year baby child I am. I am Happy.
It's out with the old, in with the new.
Make it snappy!
