January

January is a time to wipe the slate clean,

And start anew facing the unforeseen!

New and exciting challenges lie ahead;

Undoubtedly, we'll face seasons of dread,

Although, cherish the sweeter times to be had!

Relive yesterdays' good times and forget the bad;

You've a brand new year ahead so enjoy it and be glad!
