There once was a lovely young girl,

Discouragement turned her into a churl.

She heard four words,

Four words she heard.

Those words spun her into a whirl.

There once was a man who started to speak.

He always prepared each day of the week.

I’ll do it today!

I’ll do it I say!

That’s how he got on a winning streak.

There once was a lively young man who said,

“it’s time to lead and not be led.”

So he opened his mouth,

then it went south.

Now he looks east before he gets out of bed.

There once was a lonely young gal,

She was looking for a faithful pal.

Then she remembered,” open the gate,

Time to move into your fate.”

It required faith in a new locale.

There once was a man named Abram,

He wasn’t related to Sam I am.

Genesis 12 is where he was told,

“Move out from your father’s household.”

So Abram obeyed God’s program.

There once was a number eleven,

Who sent a message from heaven.

Three days after eight,

Move open the gate.

Your time has come for replevin. (a procedure whereby seized goods may be provisionally restored to their owner pending the outcome of an action to determine the rights of the parties concerned.)

It happened about the 10^th day,

That decision of work or play.

I’ll do my best!

Then I can rest.

The reward is in doing it today.

There once was a resolution,

It started a revolution.

To war I did,

Farewell I bid.

To every New Year Resolution.

January 8

There once was the number eight,

Its meaning proved to be fate.

New beginnings,

declare winnings.

Resolutions are the losers bait.
