Poem
Here comes the New Year Like you, I shall welcome it with grand pomp And celebration! I already have my list of resolutions ready The past year shall I consider grand But still, it shall be history! Now, shall I stick to my one resolution The one I have claimed always to stick to At the coming of each new year! This new year, I shall smile and relax my mind My shoulders and my nervously beating heart Yes, this new year, I shall take life lightly Smile at the face of adversity And deal with stress accordingly! Pray, I shall also arm my soul with gratitude For, mind you Life is a gift And whatever it has given me so far Has been more than enough for me It has always been my motto To take from life only as much as we require Why I had read somewhere that Life can rebel, if we are to be greedy about its offerings! This year, I shall take into consideration that I have lots already Too much in fact And that I shall put all of that into good use Yes I shall be selfless; No more seeking for myself No more seeking to appease my tantrums No more seeking to calm my yearnings Rather I shall smile Keep a cold and composed stature And hand out a hand to life While telling it, Life you can count on me! I shall help you! Yes You bet, I shall! It matters not, in the end, if the yearnings of my mundane self Are not appeased It matters not For, the mundane is subject to change The mundane is not legitimate The mundane shall perish Shall remain, only the mystery of my soul Pure and certainly made of the same matter as particles Such a consciousness Desires not Such a consciousness Merely seeks to please its maker So Why not start now At the coming of the New Year!
