Edward Ibeh Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Resolutions

Resolutions confront me at the...
End of each year, but we're such
Strange bedfellows. I hardly make them!
Once in a blue moon, I snugly
Lasso them, but I always end
Up severing the rope within months
Those I've kept I'm proud to say
I've kept seemingly for posterity; one example
Offering a helping hand to those who
Need it desperately, panhandlers especially
Savoring every moment with family and friends
