January

Time to figure consarned taxes again

     And Christmas bills come due giving me pain

          Let's delete January

               And start with February

                    January has come to be my bane

Ah but Robert despite the bills and taxes, it is a brand New wonderful start to I hope what is a terrific Year for you...Here in Australia the sky is blue the sun is hining and the birds singing go forget the Bills just look at the wonder of it all. The snow the cold, blue skys childrens laughter! Big Hugs Lizzie Happy New Year!

Most people don't consider January their favorite month. Perhaps only those with birthdays in January look forward to the month's arrival. Good writing Bob

Ah, yes, this poem is all too true! Taxes and Bills are definitely a bane, a nail in the back! OK, I vote for February to start sooner!! Awesome Work!!
