Another New Year

Well, another New Year is here
Another year older now I am
No more food and no more beer
But really, I don't give a damn

The years, how they go racing by
To try to catch them is a must
Soon will come the day to die
So, in the good lord I must trust

All said and done, I do not know
What really is in store for me
Yet while I'm here my soul will grow
With all it's wondrous mystery

If you would like to hear more.:o) get on my soup mail and ask. :o) As always, thanks for sharing with all of us on the soup. oldbuck Login to Reply Vera Duggan Date: 1/1/2018 10:15:00 PM Well this poem can also apply for now, another year older, mind you I don't feel any older and as long as I feel like that I am happy, hope the same goes for you, take care......Vera

Eve Roper Date: 1/19/2017 3:54:00 PM first stanza; i still love to eat ;;;; beer only when my tummy starts feeling funny from the diverticulitis..and like you can not seem to slow time down or move faster... Hugs Login to Reply Vera Duggan Date: 1/20/2017 1:45:00 AM Thank you Eve, yes we still love to eat, we mainly drink wine these days, not that we drink much of it, Peter also has Diverticulitis so he can't really drink beer, but he likes a drop of whisky every now and then Southern Comfort to be exact, hope you are all well, take care my dear friend.......Vera

Judy Ball Date: 1/15/2017 6:50:00 PM Excellent Vera. Gotta say although I don't know for sure what God has in store for me I do know it's got to be better than what I have experienced so far. I trust in Him. Great job. God Bless, JB Login to Reply Vera Duggan Date: 1/15/2017 9:08:00 PM Hi Judy, nice to see you again, have you been away, hope you had a great christmas and a happy new year.
