Best January 1 Poems

My list is long today.
But the voice says sleep --
Don't engage,
Don't create,
Don't make the bed --

Sleep

Begone sunshine.

My mind falls to empty thought --
Is this dementia?
Will my mind curl up
     and sleep to death?

Will I follow my mother into the depths

Vocabulist nonalcoholic punchdrunk stupor January 1st, 2020

Unlike the vast population swath,
with painful hangover
average celebrant merely
doth confusedly blink,
who devoutly pledge
new year resolution
to give up drink
immediately fall off wagon

as he/she eagerly downs
shot after fermented shot
while forearms link
with family, friends,
strangers, et cetera
and immediately rethink
alcoholics anonymous pledge
gamely nod and...

Sudden Cardiac Arrest

Sixteen bags dangled from a medical drip frame,
Each dripping liquids for prolonging my survival;
Now, as days pass by a question lingers the same,
Why from the throes of death came my revival.

Everything had to be perfect and...

A fresh start,
A new year;
A bold heart,
Prize good cheer.


Style a smile,
Work wit well;
Glimpse grand miles,
Time will tell.


On your way,
Seek clear light;
Live fine play,
Set fond sight.


Dare to live,
Wise words sum;
Love now gives,
Health that comes.


Monday art:
New year breeze;
In your heart,
Watch love squeeze.


Go forth now,
Dear soul kind;
Joy endows,
Love...

Today’s my third anniversary,
since being declared clinically dead.
 January first has since held,
mixed feelings for me instead.

Today, I’m unable to look back,
recalling this time with glee.
But God had plans for my life,
that I couldn’t foresee.

Doctors called me miracle man,
which calmed...

It was January 1st and God had my day planned,
This day, at my door, the Grim Reaper would stand.
For I was in the throes of Sudden Cardiac Arrest,
And only eight percent survive this harrowing test.

God averted my death by the dread...

A hinder look see’s the year 2024 fade from view,
today I contemplate what 2025 might have in store.
I recount unpleasant past days, more than a few,
but now, archived in history, they’re a closed door.

As I pray for improved times to enrich my...
