Today the Calendar Has Something To Say

Upon hanging a new set up on my wooden cabinet I put red marks on the days that was meaningfully done Where I count the numbers from the first number that is one down from the last possible day that is the number thirty-one Where I wait for the long years to pass all the things that caused me fears starting from the weeks up to the very short days It was still vivid in my mind where there are colorful fireworks you will find A new year starting on a happy January It was a sunny day in February and all people were very happy for it was the month of love for all to share I am nervous this month of March for I am on the stage for a ballet dance yet I am very happy because sharing my talents was a chance Sadness was within my heart this April when my favorite grandpa died it was a gray morning when all of us cried Wedding day the traditional way My aunt was glowing that month of May love was overflowing You're all invited this 23rd of July because it was my birthday lots of foods and balloons are on your way Days and months had passed and now it's December Christmas lights are bright and the nights are cold It is the season for great storied to be told Upon seeing this old and dusty calendar things from the past came back onto my sight memories that are bad or good and dark or light All are special and will always be a part of me even I bought a new one today I'll keep this old one to be remembered everyday
