A New Year

A New Year Seems like just yesterday We welcomed in last year The days and months that followed With others I did share. Small steps and better days I found throughout that time Found what really mattered When all was not sublime. We took ‘one day at a time.’ With effort made a go And yet time did go quickly If you really want to know. So here it is Start of a new year With new days And challenges to bear. Thankful for my health And for my state of being Grateful for my friends Look forward to just seeing. It seems as each year passes We note things we missed before Life has twists, turns and endings Of that, I’m really sure. So pop the cork! Drink to the New Year! Good things I wish For all that you hold dear.

Beautifully penned Sue! The year does go by very fast indeed and sometimes we focus on what we did not do and forget to do what we should do. Very well said!
