Happy New Year!

Happy New Year a phrase to bring about the time of the new year, a phrase to bring about feelings of spring and hope, a phrase cliched.

Cliched for young children eager for some cash - hide behind Mum and Dad to count how much there's inside - and determine how the outlook will be for the rest of the day.

Cliched as a phrase to brand the festivity, cover the smoothness of the ugly face that is commonplace with human emotion and psychology.

Cold, Laconic, Unnecessary, Awkward Lip-Service. Springs' in but the warmth aint.
