THE OLD YEAR TO THE NEW

Like insects that chirrup a greeting
When born is the mornings first ray,
Not knowing their lifetime is fleeting,
That darkness must follow the day
So man in his pride and his fullness
With shoutings will welcome thy
birth,
Forgetting, the mote in his dullness,
That sorrow is welded to mirth.
So came I, with joy and with gladness.
Midst feasting and singing and glee,
Now | am departing in sadness;
Not one has kindness for me.
Full many a joy and blessing
l have scattered to brighten his way,
With plenty and comfort caressing
The migrate who speeds me away.
With feasting and singing and dancing
He will struggle thy favor to crave
Forgetting thy birth is advancing
The debt he must pay to the grave.
I bow to the edicts of nature
And 60 to the ranks of the past,
Ny record when scanned by the future
On its pages in honor will last.
S. j. DeLan.
