Notes About The Poem

Ages of Acclaim

I plan to discover more works of the great masters,
Like the rich green meadow find of bright red asters!
That is my New Year's resolution, a pledge to myself-
To enjoy and benefit from history's vast store of wealth;
And the glories of yesteryear lie waiting upon the shelf.

Surely a worthy resolution, Evelyn. One book at a time, each with a differing chime. :)
