Lucille Clifton - I Am Running into a New Year
i am running into a new year
and the old years blow back
like a wind
that i catch in my hair
like strong fingers like
all my old promises and
it will be hard to let go
of what i said to myself
about myself
when i was sixteen and
twentysix and thirtysix
even fortysix but
i am running into a new year
and i beg what i love and
i leave to forgive me
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Every man should be born again on the first day of January.


Great poem and quote Miranda!
So true---
NEW YEAR- clean slate;
NEW BIGINNING- start anew;
NEW YOU
Getting Fit In Your 30's
