Happy New Year, dear friends!

THE PASSING OF THE YEAR

My glass is dry;

My fire is almost ashes too.

But once again before you go,

And I prepare to meet the New:

Old Year, a parting word that's true,

For we've been comrades, you and I;

I thank God for each day of you;

There! Bless you now! Old Year,

Goodbye.
