my attempts in 2013 did not quite go as planned

the thought of catching up toward the end when i fell short

was well just not that appealing

why go backward i thought

when i can move forward

so its one step towards filling in the blank pages

it happens but once a year

when most wake with a motivated plan

yet for us its a day we tend to veer far away from such

tis a day that is filled with the sweetest of sweets

to welcome and ring in the new

9...1

tummys plum full of cardamon filled round bits of deliciously wonderful lightly fried dough

savoring spiced apple syrup

glasses filled with bubbles and orange

frosted white windows

rain less days that leave a bittery yet warm kind of feel

frustration released

therefor leading to peace

a new leaf turned

a fresh focused frame of mind
