Christmas day
has come and gone
along with all
the Christmas songs
tree trimmings
have been stored away
cookies and sweets eaten
pounds needed
to be shed away
oh my……
wasn’t it the same
last year

made a list
of things to change
now find that most
remain the same

instead of resolutions
that last a day or 2
pop the cork
pour some bubbly
for you
for me
make a toast
to those you love
make a toast
of gratefulness
make a toast
for all your
blessings

the clock
ticks and tocks
the same as all yesteryears
but this eve
celebrate
this
brand
NEW
YEAR
