New Year Better Be

The New Year better be, don’t make me punch your nose. If love abounds you’ll see, no need to come to blows. An even year of highs, except reduce my size. Tell us the honest news, don’t make our tempers rise. The baby born on first, the parents pay their tax. Exemptions none for them, unlucky that’s the facts. Hosed procrastinator, follows the patterns till. His money pit does thrive, always another bill. The new year bells ringing, far better than the last. 2021, thank Lord when it has passed. Don’t want to drop the ball, social anxiety. With the crime rate rising, and notoriety. Ring-ring sing-a-long song, roses in peak herald. Hearken to blooms of bless, melody apparelled. Unparalleled color, the stunning pink showers. Angels yield ‘22, bouquet’s scented powers. 12/7/2021 Not for contest :)

I am optimistically hoping all these prayers for Covid-19 to stop will reach God, and He will say "okay, they have had enough." But of course, I cannot see the big picture, and His plan has always been better than mine. Good poem Kim.

The new year would be good or bad pending our expectations. Let us hope that COVID-19 would go away and let us alone breathe freely! May God protect you and your family, dearest Kim! Put yourself into God's hands, as you always do, and everything would be fine. Profound writing! Blessing.

Let's do our jobs right around home and hearth, and let God deal with the rest of the world's messy farce! ~ Lithpingly Lisper

This year brought us two deaths. Not complaining- so much suffering in this world. Let it be a merry Christmas!

Shall we take arms against the covid? Who knows who will win. In Malta we still have some deaths and patients in ITU. Let's hope something improves. Hugs.
