New Years Old Wishes

I am at the end of another year, 
I will have no fear.
Old New Year's wishes I will cheer,
here is what I have to say my dear.
Many did not appear,
I was put on a new frontier.
I wanted teaching as a career,
that has stayed in the rear.
Many years were just unclear,
now walking with Shakespeare.
As a writer I am a very new pioneer,
perhaps at the end of this year I will be at the top tier.

Takes about 9 years to be a poet. This inckudes other types of writing, of excellance, i think you are well on your way, i personally think you have what it takes to create short stories, AND.. do noy stat at one site, this islimiting. Get over to sites, where thet decide whether topoblish you and you can have the same poem at several sites, inccluding the UK. Well sometimes you have to get out there~I will be out there with you. Admitable, you want 2 grow Pangiexxx.

As poets we can be whatever we want to be and go to exotic places that others only dream about. Happy New year to Paula. Tom
