Something Old, Something New

Just go from good to excellent.
Something old, something new,
usually heard at weddings.
But not this time.
Replace something old with
something new.
Perhaps that old winter coat
with a new mink.
Or those old shoes,
with new boots.
And maybe that sad dress
with a bright color suit.
Replace those old manners.
I think not.
For they are what got you
where you got.
But try something new
for something old.
It's worth doing that
while you grow old.
