The New Year 2021

The New Year 2021

 

A time for New Year's Resolutions

for introspection and internal ablutions

A glance at the past where it now belongs

as we drink, dance and sing familiar songs

 

A time to ponder and begin anew

for there lies ahead so much we can do

Let us waste no time as the future beckons

it will soon be here in hours, minutes and seconds

 

If we are with family, friends or alone

it is good to be sitting with memories at home

The future already is beginning to look brighter

and especially for the poet and writer

 

The past is something we can do nothing about

the present we have so let's shout out

The future is not our domain to control

so let us go forward with a renewed soul
