Long lists, short lists, surprising lists, funny lists,
Resolutions in the air, the pencil knows it all.
The spirit of change and improvement lingers,
All are talking about it;
It’s a New Year.

Encouragements flow like rivers,
From one to another,
Dreams flooding every mind, spilling and overflowing.
Love, togetherness becomes contagious,
Silence,  last minute countdown bursts!
Happy New Year.

Lists of yester year lie somewhere unnoticed
Dust has gathered.
A few ticked results!
Blame it on busy schedule, errands.

Elsewhere, on yester year wall, lists taken down
Lots of ticks in sight, a smiley tops it up
A pat on own shoulder
How do they do it!

Not to worry, this year’s mine.
Same words of yester year,
That led to a few ticks, no ticks.
But, New Year new beginnings right?

Long lists, short lists, surprising lists, funny lists,
Same as yester year, a bit different, completely different.
Lets try again, while the zeal is on n’ all talking.
We might all pat our own shoulders,
This time Next year.
It’s possible, it can be achieved.
