They have "run around the slopes", "picked the daises", "wondered many weary foot", and "paddled in the stream". All of these details from the poem show that the speaker and his audience have traveled great distances over land and sea. The detail about picking details is symbolic of the good times that they had while the details about feet being weary and the seas roaring hint at more difficult times.

Further Explanation

Auld Lang Syne was written by Robert Burns in 1788. The phrase "Auld Lang Syne" is Scottish and is translated to mean times long past. The poem is about celebrating the journey that the speaker and others have taken. It is meant as a reflection on experiences both positive and negative.

Sometimes it is also used during other ceremonies that also celebrate and end such as graduation ceremonies or funerals.
