New Year Resolutions For The Year 2011 (Poem) Poem by Dave Tanguay

“Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.” Benjamin Franklin

What will my New Year resolutions be?
After I throw out the Christmas tree

Perhaps losing weight - I am a bit plump
With the lost of a few pounds, I’ll be able to broad jump

I do not smoke anymore - I have in the past
That habit I overcame - and lost it at last

I may try a little exercise - my muscles are a little flab
With a regular workout - I may regain my left jab

To try to improve on search warp - my writing style
I’ll try to bring to my readers - on their face - a smile

Trying to save money should be on everyone’s list
For money is a must - in our lives it does persist

Yes, New Year resolutions are being made throughout the land
How many of us will keep them - it’s hard to say - offhand

Approaching us soon is a New Year - the year twenty eleven
Who knows this year we may find the key - to open the door to heaven

We may be successful at the start - to make them all come through
But as time rolls on - most of them, - we will fail to pursue

So a happy and prosperous New Year - to one and all of you
May the New Year - make all your dreams come true

“May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions.”
Joey Adams
