Holidays and winter solstice,
New and old forever mix.
A brand new year has come upon us,
Another list of things to fix.
January, month of Janus
With two faces and one mind
Shows us unfaced, unsolved questions:
Issues we thought we'd left behind.
But as morning meets the day
Fresh and free of all dismay
So is each day a new beginning.
Émile Coué would have us say,
"I'm getting better, ever better
With every day in every way."
That's when things turn,
And get ever better.
It's our intent,
Our innermost yearning
The universe responds to
Day after day.
