Thanks to all who vote and/or comment on this poem too.
I actually started writing this verse in a playful frame of mind, meaning to entice and tease a response from my reader -- to play them like the putty boys get played. Hence, the taunt of merely three remaining. As I wrote on, I remembered that choked up, wistful feeling that some songs and rituals rouse in me, bringing in "Auld Lang Syne" to my New Year's Eve poem.
The new year's tradition of sweeping out the old before the end of the first night of the New Year is fairly cross-cultural and I thought an appropriate way to end a poem about the old, fading out to make way for the new.
This poem captured that feeling of regret and resolve that flows over quite a few people as January sets the stage of the following seasons, at least it did in my heart. I hope it did for many of you.
As an aside, I have never feared cliches, in fact, I embrace them. If someone else has gone through all that work to make these phrases unmistakeably clear, who am I to argue about using them? To some, well read and perhaps, well cultured, individuals out there, cliches are signs of the hack, the lazy and the theif... I use them because, believe it or not, to some readers, those ideas are fresh and new. To me, many cliches comfortably express what I'm trying to say and open doorways to other ideas that aren't as hackneyed, perhaps.
To all those pooh-poohers out there, I just want to say that I try not to worry about the impressions of the few. I want my poetry to be read and understood by everyone, for the most part, thus I try to say what I mean and think about how others will understand my meaning, only later do I worry about how I said it.
But to those that had to slog on through the unappealing appetizer of the cliche to get to the meal of my images, thanks for reading on.

I'm sorry. But I like the damn thing. Still haven't gotten around to commenting, though. I'll read it again and see if anything sucks--maybe one word. Would that help? Did you use "the" in the poem? I hate that!DeepAsleep said:Now, who hated it? Someone? Please? I can't take all this nice.
