Hello to Two Thousand and Ten

- Prayers...

Said my daughter,
At ten to two am,
As her irresponsible father tucked her in,
After we all arrived home
From the neighbour's New Year's party.

- Thank you God for two thousand and nine
- And for bringing us another year:
- Two thousand and ten...
- And thank you for lovely winter
- When we can walk carefully on the ice in Galway...
- And thank you to Anne Marie for giving us a lovely party...
- And the Wii...
- And all those games like dancing and sword fights...
- And I hope santy can bring me one next year...

- A Wii, I mean.
