It may be early yet,
But the winter's light is changing;
And thoughts generous of the immediate
And the past past
Well up and bring me to:
Whether near or far,
Let not geography
Nor time mar
The memories we share.
May the closeness now we feel
N'er diminish from what we felt
When last we were together.
(There are no endings.)
Health and happiness the new year bring
To those at peace and those who sing,
From winter's dark to next it falls,
As well and fresh through summer's promise,
Spring.
