The New Year Is Starting Today

Many people make resolutions on December 31st and plan to start their life anew the next day. But there is nothing stopping us from starting our years or our lives over whenever this needs to happen or when the mood strikes us. This dramedy poem is both serious and seriously funny.

Transcript

I've come to inform you of great national news. The new year is starting today. So put on clean undies, Be they Mondays or Sundays, The new year is starting today. Fireworks are flashy. I'd rather be classy and I've made up my mind anyway. I don't care. We're in Capricorn. What rhymes? I suppose flukelhorn. The new year is starting today. Here's how I see it and you might disagree, But time is a spice, Not a rule. Nothing is linear. So serve it for denier. The new year is starting today. I've just changed my mindset and put on my headset. I'm taking the dog for a hike. If I dance on the sidewalk, A tango or foxtrot, I'm living life just as I like. And so all who hear me, I think there's someone in Brisbane, Here is your news for the day. When you need an answer, Even if we're in cancer and nothing can get in your way, Let down your hair, Crank up the air, Say it will instead of it may. Days, Months and minutes, However they spin it. Your new year is starting today.

So I put on my undies and start a New Day…
but here’s Dilemma:
What goes or stays?
My grownup undies or
Child-Baby ones?
Please guide me, SomeBody:
Which one brings more LOVE?
So I put on clean undies and say as I do:
“Let’s go, Big Baby. Together. And Do.”

Thank you. That put a Big Smile on my face and in my heart as I am about to start my New Year on 01.01.26

Namaste.

Well said. As I tell people whose birthday is today, they’ll be this age for a full year; so, we could celebrate it all year long and that they should. (everyone likes a good party). They look at me like “there goes Anne with her craZy thoughts again.” I don’t see what’s craZy about it. They are the ones stuck it square boxes instead of round hat boxes.
I love your thought. After all, “the first day of the rest of your life starts today; right?” I forgot which famous person said that. Maybe it was you? Or did I just say that. Now, I’m just being silly.
Thanks.
Warmly
Anne
