The Passing Of The Year Comments

Rating: 4.4

My glass is filled, my pipe is lit,
My den is all a cosy glow;
And snug before the fire I sit,
And wait to feel the old year go.

The sage of time......meditating on the past to enlighten the future year.....some harsh some pleasant.......a goodbye to the PST year that has become a part of the in erasable history........

He is right - we should thank God for every day last year because we still stand here to ring in the new one. Some are even more fortunate. All their loved ones they began the year with are still here to greet the next. That is an awesome blessing to receive,

Only RWS could have done it this way! After he created Sam McGee And shot Dan McGrew, What else was there left to do?

Another Chance! Saturday night opens door for another time To enjoy fete with friends like on New Year day! Full Sunday is to enjoy time better than before Making all feel we have extension of NY day! Another chance to say cheers with friends dear Meeting them in the library, beach and park To go to a roof garden restaurant to enjoy fun With cocktail party as done in New Year day! It is really a double chance this year to do so And it gives the impression that this year will Offer chances twice to try our efforts in the Ventures we all play to undertake in the course! Surely the celebration again after New year Day is like seeing Blue Moon in one month!
