A calendar poem for January:
January waits,
unsentimental,
Again born
into beauty, cruel and kind.
Nor cold
nor darkness fools the wily child,
Unweeping
in a brutal wind and wild,
As the
Earth turns passionless and blind.
Rejoicing
in her birth, she dons the mantle,
Yearning to
recall what lies behind.
