From Twenty-Three To Twenty-Four

My word! The New Year came at last. Thank God! The Old Year vanished fast. I paid for bills that rose and rose. What happens now? God only knows. Why would I want to get dismayed? And so I pray that bills get paid. So here I am in twenty-four, In search of discounts more and more. Some charities have proved first rate. Lord, bless me so I can donate. To lend a hand is my intent Beyond some fleeting sentiment. Beyond resistance not to give. Through my persistence, others live. Denis Martindale, for the 3rd of January 2024.
