Hear me
read
the poem as
an MP3 file.
Watch me
read
the poem as
an MP4 file.
New
Year's falls just at the darkest hour,
Even as the sun lies sick and dying.
When the darkness turns hope starts anew,
Year by year a lesson ever true,
Each of us the bitter cold defying.
All my life I want to be with you,
Restoring year by year our love-vined bower.
