6 resolutions + 1 wishful thinking = 07

New resolutions for this New Year,

I've decided to jot them down here.

What should I set out to achieve,

Let’s start out with my pet peeve.

I must tone up and lose some weight,

Must become healthy before it’s too late.

Learning a new language sounds like fun.

Though I know that’s easier said than done.

Then there is my wanderlust,

Visit a new country I must.

I must begin saving for a rainy day,

Must prepare for what the future holds at bay

Must get down to reading some more,

Autobiographies, fiction and even folklore.

Then of course there is that skill I wish I had everyday,

A musical instrument I must learn to play,

Think I'm going to end with some wishful thinking,

Enough of what I must and time for a little dreaming

What would be really cool would be a raise

Maybe a few improvements and lots of praise.

This surely will be the icing on the cake,

If they do give me more than I currently make.

season beginning

Slow breathing and deep sighs,

She bit her lower lip to stifle those cries,

Her soft curls bounced on her forehead,

No words spoken yet so much was said.

That naughty smile, her seductive touch,

Seemed to say "I want it so much",

My defenses’ down she took the lead

As we set out to do the deed.

I'd never seen her with such passionate drive,

All her senses coming alive

One, wouldn't do she needed more,

As she came close to whisper “You never know what else is in store"

Flush with excitement, it showed on her face,

The twinkle in her eyes showed this was her favorite place.

And where you ask was this exclusive locale,

It was the season beginning "Nine West and Ferragammo" Shoe sale.

2006, take a bow

Ring out the old, Ring in the new,

What does the New Year hold, I wish I knew.

Another year has come and passed by,

Oh, how swiftly does time fly.

2006 was filled with fun and adventure,

But that is something I say fondly as I look back every year

Met lots of people, made lots of new friends.

I hope this part never ends.

2006 was also my first full year at work

And I realised its going to take many more such years before I can buy that Merc.

Two New bosses and even a transfer,

All this and I still think I'm overworked and underpaid here.

2006 had its share of partying,

Wining, dining and even some sight seeing,

It had its share of "affaires romantique",

From "ahem" you know whats to a peck on the cheek.

All in all as I look back now,

2006, take a bow,

It's been a year of ups and downs,

But I'm sure the smiles outdid the frowns

Ring out the old, Ring in the new,

What does the New Year hold, I wish I knew.

I hope it's even better than last year,

Lots more fun and even more cheer.

time to go home

The time has come to meet old friends,

To relive old jokes and visit our old dens.

The time has come to eat home food

Where whatever mom cooks always tastes good.

The time has come to meet family,

Mom, dad, bro and anyone related to me.

The time has come to maybe meet that old flame,

And maybe even accept that you were to blame.

The time has come pack and get ready,

For the long journey that awaits me,

Cuz no matter where I am, HK, Singapore or Rome,

There’s no better time than when it's time to go home.
