New Year’s Eve

As I watched this robin sitting on the fence on the very last day of 2022 the opening lines of Minnie Louise Haskin’s famous poem came to mind :

And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
"Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown".

The poem’s title is often referred to as ‘The Gate of the Year’. Minnie Louise Haskin’s actual title of this poem is God Knows.

Here’s to whatever 2023 has in store …?
