II. A NEW YEAR'S GREETING
I
To thee far-off beside the wavesThat even in winter gleam with light
This greeting from a realm of night
And streets like graves.
II
I send thee, love, the tenderest kissThat ever thrilled across the air
To change December's gaunt despair
To summer's bliss.
III
All health, all gladness, love, be thine;Bright days, soft slumbers, till we meet,—
Till laughter flashes from thy sweet
Young eyes on mine!
135
IV
To reach and cheer thee where thou artI send my love, best hopes I send,
And New Year wishes without end,
And all my heart.
