New year's RES*

Michael Watkins 1965 (San Diego)



Another year to reach my goals
I'm setting the marker high,
The things I didn't dare to do
I won't be afraid to try,
I'll take my time and focus ahead-
To everything I can achieve,
Everyday I'll live and grow
And stand firm in what I believe,
Give love and support to those who care-
and accomplish the goals I set,
Honor my choices-
Man of my word
Until all of my life-goals are met.

                        By. Michael A Watkins.
