'something New'

I shall try to awaken myself to a new beginning,
realizing the unimportance of always winning. 
      Maybe I can write a book just for us sweet ladies.
      Go out and buy myself a new elite Mercedes.
Trying something new to keep me grinning. 

      A fresh start would be nice, wouldn’t you agree?
      Research my kindred lineage pedigree. 
Wake up every morning to a dawn of a new day,
or is that over-used phrase just too cliché?
      Accept all the good and throw out the debris. 

What I have always loved to try with all my might, 
is surf those tidal waves under the Hawaii twilight. 
      It would be an experience I would always remember, 
      but it has to be New Year’s Eve, late in December. 
O, what an exhilaration, I would call it “my try night”.

      So as each day passes I shall try to do something new.
      Make sure to tell my hubby, “I’m always loving you…”
Be the greatest woman I could ever become and more,
the one who everyone tries to appreciate and adore. 
      I shall revitalize in faith…love who I’m becoming too.
