Poem
Seasons and weather in environs bring changes awe-filled,
With new flora and fauna Mother Nature feels fulfilled;
Each New Year is Pandora's Box with swarms of fresh issues,
I know, yet, hope sticks beneath all like corporal tissues...!

From my birth till date I savor the progress I have made,
Could I have ever achieved this with no heavenly aid?
Undertakings and accomplishments, like wishes and boons,
Have embellished my constellations with endless full moons...!

Around seas of tentativeness sand castles, I make,
At the beginning of each year; some are strong; others shake; 
Goals I set; dreams I dream; place plans and codes like precious stones;
Midst gems and pearls pebbles peep up too and capture their thrones...!

Success and failures in life I find as coal and gold mixed,
Both are like flesh and nail; though on none existence is fixed;
Equilibrium in thoughts, words, and deeds like muck and mud,
Make seasonal and perennial plants of wisdom bud...!

Honesty, integrity, loyalty, humility,
Kindness, compassion, selflessness, and equanimity;
These I knit, like beads in the necklace of resolutions,
When broke, I fixed it with the glue of patient solutions...!

A bead bracelet, for this year, I am weaving with pure love -
Love for creatures of lands and seas as shown by God above; 
Being his temple, to my body and soul I must care,
With innocent smiles, his graces on my face I must bear...!

Through musing and meditation to within, I must plunge, 
Sowing seeds of optimism, pessimism I must expunge;
Though I do not lack charity, should I stop it ever?
Like coconut and palm, this must grow in each endeavor...! 

Caring for all; sharing my wealth with them; I must extend, 
The realm of love and friendship; toward God, I must ascend;
Death, dear guest, will knock on my door at any time, I know,
Heart well set like a nomad, I must be ready to go...!
