Resolutions more resolutions
Better than not having none
Make it a % game
No excuses so lame
Don't expect a 100%
At least achieve some
At year's end you're done
See! It can be fun
Lamenting and regretting
For breaking resolutions yet again
Will be a thing of the past
Have a big laugh
The idea is
Double the no. and insist
That I’ll break only half
But diligently do the rest a must
Then your conscience is clear
To welcome the New Year!
Happy New Year every one
2011 has been much fun!

haha a good way to look at it indeed
ReplyDeleteJust as you said on my feed
Make up nice and easy ones
And then you can complete tons
Throw a hard one in
And try not to let it go to the trash bin
But don't wait and just get it done
Then one can go on to have some fun
Thanks a lot Pat

You've been such an inspiration
For in my 2012 resolutions
To write lots of poetry
Hope not to go awry
And as you've said, when it's all done
We laugh together for all the fun
Hank

1/2 is actually a pretty good deal. My resolution is to avoid people who want to exert moral authority over..well, anyone.
ReplyDeleteAnd the same back to you!!
ReplyDeleteI resolve to make no resolutions. Just love more in general.

I like that one of your 2012 resolutions is to write lots of poetry -- your poetry needs to be written so others can read it! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely to meet you in 2011 -- look forward to getting better acquainted in 2012 -- one of my resolutions is to connect more with people I meet through my blog to let them know how much I appreciate their stopping by -- I appreciate your stopping by! :)
Happy New Year!
