Cherish

` Cherish `
 

In solemn stillness I sit,on the eve of new year, reflecting quietly. wondering, did I savor every moment of this past year? and in all honesty, my answer is no~ I could have made more of each moment, making every minute last, with more excitement,putting more effort into the task at hand perhaps I have wasted more time on foolish things than I care to admit. Time is valuable, and flees so fast Now I wonder what I can change in the new year approaching~ maybe savoring more, of each precious moment,and to cherish my love ones more~ yes, much more, for I have promises to keep, not only to others, but to myself as well.

As true today as it was in 2008. Those new years resolutions aren't always easy to keep but we still try, don't we. :)

I love this line!! Beautifully penned!!

I love the idea of cherishing each moment in our life more. We need to slow down our pace once in awhile and enjoy the moments that can pass us by so quickly. The flow of this poem is smooth and the topic is one that most of us need to think about and try to do in this new year.
