January Poem by Gregory Huyette

A time to review, a time to renew;
A time to bid farewell to last year’s amassed.
A time to survey opportunity’s view.
A time for the present before it’s the past.

A brand new year for joys and sorrows,
Most of which will be of our own making.
Don’t miss the todays while planning tomorrows
Since right now is here for the taking.

Snowy driveways and football chats
Dot this month of ice and snow.
Old Man Winter attacks thermostats
As sledding kids know where to go.

This new month is what you make it.
It can be freezing cold and very stark…
Or full of warmth if you don’t forsake it,
But recommit to love as you embark.
