Hello January

Eleven months is too long a wait to greet,
Hello January ! At last you are here,
I was zealous to receive you this new year!

Some shiny pearls of intense merriment,
Amused throughout the year and gave a blow,
Let fill your heart and the face glow!

Some new resolutions to be made with you,
Few unkept promises solid as a bundle of water,
Must be kept and shared with you !

Some missing strands of mission unaccomplished,
Still ought to be executed this month,
Anticipate an appreciation from you!

Few events the source of unhappiness,
Though seem difficult to be forgotten,
Let them die earlier to you!

Hello! A brand new January ,
You are getting younger year by year,
I yearn for a close encounter with you!!

Very well written Dr. Upma! You've managed to bring out the theme in a manner that flows smoothly and is a joy to read. Eleven months really is a long time and in that time promises and vows are broken as others are fulfilled. You've said it best!
