it looks a cold damp day outside
and Newport County have
scraped a 1 – 1 draw
which might be better than losing
but does extend the miserable
winless sequence that currently
has them by the throat
same old problems for a New Year
it looks like a cold damp day
to start off 2020
but I’m old enough now
to let others do the shopping
while I write poems
and check out Facebook
it might be a cold damp day
but it’s another New Year
I can tick off
another to add to a long list
that is longer now
than I ever expected
one of these cold damp days
I will tick off a New Year
that will be my End Of The Line
to quote a Travelling Wilburys title
which will be okay
we all have one New Year
that will be our last
