Combs the New Year with its aims and aspirations, With its hope of joys unnumbered to record, May the harvest of your bright anticipations Give you stores of, garnished pleasures for reward. Dawns the New Year with its sorrow and its gladness, Calmly go ye but to meet it without fear ; For our Father sends the joy, and knows the sadness, And His Angels count the cost of every tear. Flies the New Year with a swift and sure progression, May it leave a hope with you. which shall abide, And become a restful, sure and dear possession That will give you peace and joy at eventide. Rhoda Akney.
