cast shame and pain
and never, ever, waste The Champagne!


Poem Artwork



Right before the stroke of midnight
Grab your bottle
and fill your glass of life,

while tipping your cup, just enough
to spill out your inner beauty...
never pour it out fast,

you'll lose all your juice too fast;
So make it last!
Sip it slow,

savor the flavor...
and don't forget to appreciate the bubbles,
It's what makes us stronger!

Swallow the taste,
enjoy what you face
Better yet, share it then,

with all those who loved you, when...
and all who love you now!
Click the crystal,

hear it twang!
Make a wish,
and leave this old year,

with an accomplished, bong!
2007 here we come!
Keep your glass high,

and have some fun!
There are new adventures,
yet to come!

HAPPY NEW YEAR, one and all
don't drink too much,
you might just fall!

And when that ball finally drops
Thank your Father in heaven
and then your pops,

and your moms too!
Thank them both
for giving them, you!

Start this year anew
Do what you do
and be the best-est,

Enjoy the kisses!
Cast shame and pain
and never,

ever,

waste

The Champagne!

Well, another year is nearly done and I am ready to move ahead to the new, but not before I kick a little kitty litter over 2006 and bury it right properly. No matter what happened last year we are now on the eve of new start and a clean slate. A very Happy New Year to you and yours. Chin-Chin.
Take care,
