Wishing you and your loved ones a great, happy and healthy new year!
Speaking of new year greetings this year himani and I actually posted hand-made new year greeting cards to folks.
She (being rather goodish at water colours) painted. She also tried other media such as oil-pastels for some of the cards.
Here is a sampling of the cards that we made for Diwali and Season's greeting in general
If you like to get one, then drop me a line here with your snail mail address and I will be more than happy to send one across!!
Also my Cousin, Dr. Ram Datar dawns mantle of a poet when he is not researching about Cancer!
Here is his new-year poem for 2008:
For those who continue to bear
Here I am with my annual fare
And to those who are new to the treating
A few lines for the New Year Greeting
Resolve in the New Year to listen to Natures wonder
Lift your spirits with the worlds splendor
When you want to feel good, borrow a song
And when World needs a helping, pass your heart along
Complements, complaints, and some heartburn
They all enrich you, youll be sure to learn
Befriend many, displease a few
With every new day, start anew
To each person we meet, lets all be nice
Seek the value and avoid to price
Sunrise to sunset, sunshine is everywhere
We only need a vision, and an openness to share
Winter is a promise of Spring waiting in wings
Carry hard times along, as the New Year rings
Wherever we go, lets have music in our feet
A smile on our lips, and a song in heartbeat
Lets remember, we are rich when our pleasures are cheap
Happy friends are a treasure, thats all we need to keep
Be anywhere, I will follow you with wishes best
Well have a great New Year, filled with comfort and rest
