January

Joyfully I greet the year
Aspirations rising
New horizons drawing near
Untapped sources prizing
Apathy is cast aside
Raised are expectations
Yuletide and the New Year bring cause for celebrations.

How clever to set it to a carol (had to think about it before I got it!) Congratulations, thanks for entering!
