12/14/2024 for One and Only New Years Goal for 2025 Poetry Contest sponsored by Constance La France

If you wanted three things, laughter, imagination, and wonder, but could only ask for one, you could ask for something wild. You could ask for a child. Or, say you had three New Year's Resolutions, but could on make one. If you were me (which I happen to be) I would promise to first take care of me. My other goals follow, making three.   Then, I could better enjoy each friend, and I would be kind to them in the end. Those two are my other goals. Together three make up one whole. What needs most attention is my back, so, I must sort through skilled practitioners and quacks.

This is a lot of insightful fun, and a goal to do well in the contest it has done. And I hope enjoying friends excludes the quacks!
