Notes About The Poem

January

Just where have the weeks gone
Another year has whizzed past
No New Years resolution, I'd only break it
Unless it’s to meet George Clooney
Ah fiddlesticks he’s married now! 
Romance is off the cards
Yeah, but a girl can dream!

January Acrostic Contest
Sponsored by Michelle Faulkner

NB I have never made a New Year's Resolution, this is just a standing joke with my husband
