_______________________________________________________________________

Some resolutions I will make this year.
I told my best friends this with a small sneer.
My friends know all too well that I'm not one
to make such promises except in fun.

The first one is that I will always eat
each day at least one thing that I find sweet,
for  dieting just makes me crave food more.
Vow two is never eat stuff I abhor.

Those first two resolutions I can keep
as easily as doing them asleep.
The third one is that each day I will pet
my cats. How much easier can these get?

I'm sure I could come up with many more -
like in the bathroom always close the door
or always lick the spoon when making cake.
a hundred resolutions I could make!

You're right about eating something sweet, Andrea. Cutting out sweets completely just makes it worst. It's okay to make resolutions that you'll keep, it's kind of like a to do list. Have a great 2024, my dear friend. Hugs, Bill

Very sweet. You are too funny. Now I'm thinking of resolutions I could make that meet your criteria. Not a bad thing to do.
