New Year’s Greetings
New Year's Greetings
Dear Friends - Suzanne and I send our warmest New Year's Greetings with hopes that 2012 will be filled with many good and kindly experiences for all of you.
"The door was shut, as doors should be,
Before you went to bed last night;
Yet Jack Frost has got in, you see,
And left your window silver white.
He must have waited till you slept;
And not a single word he spoke,
But pencilled o'er the panes and crept
Away again before you woke.
And now you cannot see the hills
Nor fields that stretch beyond the lane;
But there are fairer things than these
His fingers traced on every pane."
- Gabriel Setoun, "Jack Frost"
