Eve Roper Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

  

Resolutions

New Year’s Resolutions

The New Year is slowly nearing
Needing to leave the old year singing

Shouting and cheering feeling carefree
Of what the New Year will bring for me 

Making charitable resolutions with caring lifestyle changes
Stick and not fail to make better life choices

Through the year acquiring good eating habits
Cutting down on eating my favorite iced doughnuts

Taking my husband’s hand and take long brisk strolls
Increase those strolls a little further each day to reach longer goals

My soul needs to share more time with my family
Making loving memorable memories and being friendly

Toss away my aging and be free
Enjoy earthly beauty

Bring in the New Year
With a glass of beer and some cheer

CayCay Godwin December 11, 2015 at 7:02 PM I enjoyed reading this serious, but light weight poem. Good job, Eve - you do indeed have an entertaining way with words .... CayCay Eve Roper December 13, 2015 at 4:50 PM Thank you, Cay Cay, so very much. CayCay Godwin December 11, 2015 at 7:41 PM I meant to type enticing, not entertaining - but both work ... CayCay
