Another new year and

I should not change

My old decisions.

But now try to think

Of a new resolution.

Nothing is probably going to change.

There’ll be snow in winter,

And April will bring rain.

But I should lose pounds,

East more healthful foods,

Drink less and

Spend less, too.

By June, though,

The truth is clear. There’ll be nothing new

About this year.

So, now I have another solution,

I won’t even have

A New Year’s resolution.
