35. After the New Year After the promise of the New Year Surmises a time to drain a blue tear After the confetti and the fanfare Reality returns quite aware After the toasts of pink champagne Another lost way to refrain From every hopeful resolution A missed opportunity for evolution After the party at times square A chance for life to prepare But if your not more than vigilant Life's train will pass you standing petulant 1-23-11

About the Book
This book started with a simple poem;or the writing of a few ideas around the 4th of July 2010. This is a pleasant time of year in America and got things going in the right direction. Soon,as the year progressed,more and more events shaped occurrences and this book began to take on a life of its own. In short,it was the right time for me to embark on this project and am happy with its outcome. These poems explore the edge,of modern life with a core of traditionalism. I only hope that the world enjoys reading them as much as I enjoyed putting them down on paper. I am also hoping to do some good with this book and have decided to donate half of the proceeds to disaster relief. It has been an epic year of natural disasters,and many peoples lives have been affected by tornado’s, hurricane’s,flooding,earthquake’s and wildfire’s. If this book raises funds I will be looking to help those families who are still rebuilding. L.O.L
