The Real Start

It really makes more sense to me
Not to start in January
Shouldn’t it all begin in February
When the brain, heart, and body
Have a month just to be
Take stock and clear all the debris
Some peace after the wild party
To reflect back and foresee
A month of slowly and leisurely
Planning, a nap, or a coffee
An easy reentry into the miscellany
A chance to shake off all the groggy
From the end of last year that was so crazy
