I, as I stood <br /> On the threshold of 2K, <br />Looked back to say <br /> Adieu to 1900. <br />I exulted aloud <br /> With a rhapsody of praises to the novelties. <br />I, again, looked back - <br /> The novelties of 1900 were no more novel <br />I felt a flick, <br /> Time stuttered across, crossing 1900. <br />I sat marvelling at the <br /> Time-led 'novices' of 1900 <br />I waited inquisitively, <br /> Time, non-stop, meddled, moulded, mended, <br />The 'novices' of 1900 <br /> To become novelties of 2K<br /><br />Maitali Verma<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-threshold-of-2k/
