Make Way!


Make way! Make way! The new year cometh!
Celebrate! Your life begins anew.
Clear out the old, the burdensome,
that which is no longer true.
Light the way for Health, Good Luck and Prosperity.
Happy New Year, dear friends, to you!
(c) 2009 Martha McLemore

To paraphrase Rabbi Tom Waits, don't plant your troubles in your garden, put them in the recycling bin.

I think that poem could have appeared in St. Nicholas' Magazine in the 19th Century, even though you wrote it, and thanks for doing so.
