Mondays resolutions


On a Monday,

I make new promises

Like January 1st,

But every week instead.

I make my resolutions;

I’ll eat my veggies, run again.

I’ll finish my tasks

Then relax in the sun again.

How I miss being 28

Maybe, if I worked harder

On each and every Monday

I could turn back the clock

My back wouldn’t object

To more than 7 hours

Of sleep in a row

Or a long walk with a friend

I’ll go easy on myself

On this Monday,

My one year anniversary

Of my first baby book

This Monday I promise myself

I’ll read a book a week

from the closet by my bed

Then reward myself,

With new books there instead
