New Year's Plans

Next year I'll speak softly,
No screams and no shouts
And I'll thank my mother
When she serves Brussels Sprouts.

I'll come when I'm called
And shut off the TV.
I won't tell my brother
How dumb he might be.

I'm happy for New Year's
'Cause it always brings
A chance for a gal to
Make up these fine things.

And this time next year,
I'll think how I've been
And then I'll start writing
This list down again.
