Homage


old and gray – tired and worn
many died – more were born
much was said – so little done
with the rising and setting of each sun.

farewell to thee with tears we say
and greet the new with laughter gay
so much could, should, would have done
alas, the year was gone and I’d just begun.
 
and so, I make firm resolution
to do much more by this new year’s conclusion.
