New Calendar, Old Calendar  

Old calendar's last page is old and worn.  
Tomorrow, tidy ones will deck the wall.  
What wishes shall we make on new year morn?  
The kids will want to grow up, smart and tall.  
Adults will want a storeroom full of corn;  
their house is warm in winter, cool at fall.

Our future days are God's gifts, so content
yourselves with simple life from day to day.
Don't count the passage of years in lament, 
but sum  the blessings on your daily tray.  

Agatha Lai

Hi Agatha -

Great to see you around again.

I hope you are well and I look forward to seeing you more in 2006.

Genesis (the rock group) said a similar thing:

"Don't live today for tomorrow,
like you are immortal."

And I think your renewed message is very well put and well timed.

Happy New Year.

J.

Hi Aggie

As the others have said, a lovely poem and much truth in the  message.  We should live for today and appreciate what we have, there are many who have less.

Thanks for the read and the reminder.
