Resolutions are simply acknowledging a bit of wisdom.
Like,” When you add something to the cupboard of life,
subtract something.”
Most are simply common sense that I should already know
Things that if done make life better for me and others
I don’t give much thought to resolutions… turned wishful thinking
I try to live every day the very best I can and not worry about the rest
When the time comes life will make my resolutions for me
Whether I like them or not

Today at d’Verse, Punam gave us a list of five resolutions. We were to pick one and incorporate it into a poem regarding resolutions. The one I chose is in dark print in my poem.

If it’s important enough to make it a resolution it’s important enough to do it now.

I agree. Making a ‘resolution’ to stop doing something that’s killing you is just common sense. Some people seem to want applause for doing the obvious.

I agree, Dwight. We should just resolve to live each day the best we can, and let life lead the way on any other resolutions that need to be made.
