Welcoming the new year with appropriate poems

In Patrick McDonnell's comic, Mutts, on January 3, I felt a connection so I made it into a cinquain pattern. This is a found poem.

Mooch's
resolution
for two-thousand 'leven:
he resolves to "take more naps. Z-"
Me, too.
~~
New Year's morning
for breakfast, the last
of the Crackerjacks
~~
noon on New Year's day
napping ... my collegian, too,
sleeps this day away
~~
eight hours
into the new year
two new poems
~~
eighteen degrees
the faucets dripping
against frozen pipes
~~
January fourth
warm enough to work outside
but for the north wind
~~
Epiphany's feast:
a last blueberry muffin
from Christmas breakfast
