Happy New Year - my poem for the time

Happy New Year
Christmas day has been and gone.
Unwrapping the presents has been done.
Eating far too much for days on end,
Has caused that tight waistband to bend.

Did you really need to drink that wine?
Alka Seltzer will make you fine.
Are you swamped with invitations
To go and share the celebrations?

Maybe you are alone and sad.
Watching others being glad.
Feeling blue and lonely?
Eating a meal for one only.

So make it a party, or not.
With happy memories you've got.
Toast your absent friends.
To good beginnings and ends.

It's just another day
One more along life's way.
Fill it with cheer.
Make it a Happy New Year!
