Nette Onclaud Poet Acrostic

It's January

J ubilee’s song heightens; the bell is rung
A uld Lang Syne…fond memories we all keep,
N ever-ending the pour of chilled wine, that 
U nsaid words of love spill on tinseled lights;
A s orchestral tunes greet this first of month
R eveling in dreams laced with snowdrop scent;
Y ounger the hearts...chanting newborn wishes!

~ This is my birth month; carnation and Snowdrop
 are symbolic flowers implying hope and beauty
