Recipe for A Happy New Year
To leave the old with a burst of song.
To recall the right and forgive the wrong.
To forget the thing that binds you fast.
To the vain regrets of the year that's past.
To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the not worthwhile of the day's grown old.
To dare to go forth with a purpose true,
To the unknown task of the year that's new.
To help your brother along the road.
To do his work and lift his load.
To add your gift to the world's good cheer,
Is to have...and to give a Happy New Year!
~-Robert Brewster Beattie from "A Way to a Happy New Year"
New Year's
'Twas the month after Christmas,
and all through the house...
Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste
At the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).
I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared;
The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rare,
The wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese
And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt
And prepared once again to do battle with dirt.
I said to myself, as I only can
"You can't spend a winter disguised as a man!"
So...away with the last of the sour cream dip,
Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip
Every last bit of food that I like must be banished
'Till all the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie--not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.
I won't have hot biscuits, or corn bread, or pie,
I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.
I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore--
But isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
Happy New Year to all and to all a good diet!
