Dreams of My New Year

I usually don’t make them, resolutions I mean With the best of intentions they begin and end as a dream But as I reflect on the year that just ended Many of my actions leave me offended So I will start on this new New Years Day Resolving to think more while having much less to say I will arrive where I’m going exactly on time I’ll pay my bills early and to the last dime I’ll wake with a smile and give one to all I meet When I play cards with my aunt never again will I cheat When I’m treated with rudeness I’ll just walk away To help to ensure that I’ll see a new day Never again will I tailgate while driving my car And on my way home I’ll skip at least one open bar I feel so much better getting this all off of my chest And to keep each one made I’ll try with great zest Just one more point I would like to make My poems will all rhyme even if sense is at stake I’ll end by wishing all that read this good cheer And many good wishes for A Happy New Year! P.S. It’s time for a nap; the party can wait No one will mind if I’m just a bit late!
