Where did January go? I ask you Why?
Why did the month fly by, I sigh?
A hectic-year-end caught us in its grip
We turned the page forward not to slip
Looking into the pasts fast-paced time
A hectic-year-end caught us in its prime
Happy New Year 2019 came up the line
Janus looks ahead to the future this time
And revelers settled down to reflect
To rewind and to never ever forget
Obstacles may clutter the new path
But courage and fortitude will last
So no matter what the new year brings
Rise up to the challenge dance and sing
Joyously welcome the luck of a clean slate
Remember your intentions it's never too late
Renew those latent dreams and fire them up
Own this year and fill up your creativity cup
Move forward on the wave of challenge
Journey to new horizons, you will manage
In skating on thin ice, safety is your speed
Say Adieu to January, dig deep, plant seeds
Clean out the closets, clean out the weeds
Initiate new ideas, let disappoints recede
With deep gratitude, live life with a spark
Give thanks for renewal as January departs!
