Dancing into a new year
🕑 Added 2022-01-24 10:07:02 +0000 UTCThe new years come, the old years go,
We know we dream, we dream we know.
We rise up laughing with the light,
We lie down weeping with the night.
We hug the world until it stings,
We curse it then and sigh for wings.
We live, we love, we woo, we wed,
We wreathe our brides, we sheet our dead.
We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,
And that's the turning of the year.
– from a poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850–1919)
