My Five New Year Resolutions
TO BE MORE AUTHENTIC
because sometimes I don't say
And then it just eats away
Sometimes I might resent them for it
Or maybe even ignore them for it
So next year I'll just try to deal with it.
TO GIVE MORE OF MY TIME
When I see a familiar face
won't rush off with such haste
remind myself to give another minute
To make more small talk
Be more approachable,
and slower in my walk
TO BE MORE ENCOURAGING
Give a friendly smile
Maybe sit down,
and talk for a little while.
GIVING MORE COMPLIMENTS
Won't shy away from feeling
And show more sentiment.
TO MAKE MORE TIME FOR ME
By creating something with my hands
Or supporting another with their plans
More sunny walks with my pooch
Or Delighting in a romcom smooch.
