Happy New Year!

A new year
To cherish those who are dear
A new start
As old worries from us do part
A chance to polish the resolve
And make our bad habits dissolve
A time to forego malice
Or share in forgiveness
A moment to reflect
Upon those acts we regret
The love not given, the kind word not said
The harsh gaze delivered,
The rudeness we forced upon others
A pause to ponder the roads not taken
Or to rejoice in the ones that we did
And the hope eternal that this year
We will be a better person than we were last year.

many thanks. the same to y'all and a healthy one.
and still i persist in wondering whether folly must always be our nemesis. edgar pangborn

come gentle night. come loving black browed night
give me my romeo. and when he shall die
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all will be in love with night

I never do (haven't for many years). If I am sincere about changing something, August 19th is as good a date as January 1, and if I'm not sincere, saying it on January 1 won't make it so.

Happy belated new years, all. Sorry but I was too busy gaining weight on a tropical island in the form of pina coladas to check in here on that day. :P
Yes, I have a life. It's quite different from yours.

OMG, I'm jealous. The weather here sucks (and I love pina coladas).
