Is It That Time Again?

( a Quatern )


It’s time to make a promise for the year,
To be steadfast in resolute success.
I try to see a glass half full and clear,
Instead of good intentions in a mess.

I sit and make a list in poet’s rhyme,
It’s time to make a promise for the year.
Of something not too hard for me to climb,
Yet making sure it’s near my heart & dear.

While staring at my list I feel a tear,
Because the page is blank without a clue.
It’s time to make a promise for the year,
But I can’t think of one thing I can do.

Am I a coward, why can’t I commit?
Do I have feet of clay, what do I fear?
Each year I go through this and have a fit,
It’s time to make a promise for the year.
