A New Year's Resolution in an Acrostic Poem

Happy New Year

Langley Cornwell
Now is the time to reflect and perhaps
Evolve.
Wait no more, live this life - now.

Yes, breathe.
Enjoy the moments as they come, as they are.
Always remember to drink them in.
Relish, be present.
Savor.

Relax and recognize that
Each instant is a gift.
Seek the silver lining.
Obey your inner voice of kindness.
Love.
Understand and appreciate. Celebrate.
The simple things
In life are often the most precious. Give thanks.
Own it, feel it, live it, love it, know it.
Now, start now.

Happy New Year!
