Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

Wipe the Slate

Wipe the slate and greet the year;
It’s the best of choices.
Let the sorrows disappear
As everyone rejoices.

Things could always be much worse,
We always keep forgetting.
Shift to drive and leave reverse – 
What’s over needs no fretting.

Venture out and face the day
And feel the sunshine’s healing.
Find some joy in life’s bouquet
And focus on that feeling.
