resolute promise jovial
resolute in his resolve
he promised himself
come the new year
he’ll turn himself in
no that’s not what he meant
no mistaking
he did not do anything wrong
neither is he a crook
it’s just that
he wants to prove to himself
he’s meant for better odds
he’s jovial
nice looking guy
pleasant in attitudes
of very good bearing
why can’t he be revered
and admired
despite his faults
yes, there are faults
but only unto himself
not impinging on others
well-mannered
basking in his own glory
and friends to many
yes, why not!
he has got his resolutions
all worked out
needs a little polishing though
but just about time!
A little polishing will always be needed as they come to be and things change around a bit
ReplyDeleteI think we all need to polish our resolutions so he's in good company! Happy new year to you too Hank
ReplyDeleteWe all need a booster polish to gloss over the old ~Happy New Year!
