A RESOLUTION

Michael Edwards

 

A New Year’s resolution for me

compliance with which I could not guarantee

 I decided to write more serious stuff

and boy am I finding the going tough

for my brain power’s sadly not increased

 my poetic scribbles are still off piste.

    May that 'piste' become smooth and this New Year be wonderful.

    You have started well with your glorious artwork Michael.

    Happy New Year.

      Thanks Andy- trying out Acrylic Pour - a technique more popular overseas - this was my first attempt and was snapped over Christmas - now hanging in North London.

      A fine write and pic there M. Happy 2021 to you. Erm, I thought I would get a New Year greeting in early! heehee.
      Do we know what day it is? Do we know what YEAR it is even?! lol.

      • Michael Edwards

        I'm always ahead of myself - nice to know I'll still be here in 2021

        • orchidee

          Yes - let's wish all a happy 2021 today - in case we forget later?! heehee.

          Never fear Michael dear - Your wit will always rise to the crest of serious writing my clever friend. Love all that mixture of colour.

          • Michael Edwards

            Ah Fay - just a bit of fun - got a few short serious ones up my sleeve - must remember to keep them out of the dishwater!!

          • ANGELA & BRIAN

            ANGELA HERE - Good Morning Uncle Mike ! Happy New Year 2020 ! Love the ABSTRACT and we have used it (OK ?) in our POEM to illustrate how 2020 looks at the moment - hopefully as the Year unfolds issues (like BREXIT) will resolve themselves. I have acknowledged ME as the source of the PAINTING ~ Thanks in advance for PERMISSION !
            Love the sentiments in your POEM but our advice would be : Let us deal with the Serious Stuff - and You stick to the Comedy and make US smile each morning ! One of our RESOLUTIONS ! All our Thoughts & Prayers are with Andy & His Family TODAY !

            Blessings & Peace for You & Yours in 2020
            Love ANGELA & BRIAN ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

              It's an honour that you should wish to use my latest - there is some serious stuff in the pending box.

              Hello Michael!

              That was a lovely write!

              Keep the resolution and don't give up!

              All the best for a New Wonderful Year of writing!

              Keep writing FineB

                I shall never give up - now where;'s that pen? All the best dear friend.

              • myself and me

                Happy New Year! A wonderful painting for the start of the year.
