Sign of the times - Poetry contest sponsored by John Hamilton
L-et the new year's good sign
E-manate from first of January;
A-llowing the fresh horizon to bring a joyful journey.
R-ace must be completed,
A-im to reach the finish line;
M-ake it to the lovely day
O-f the new year's good
S-ign.
M-orning sets things aright,
I-nclement clime turns fine;
L-onely twilight is gone,
E-arly dawn is a good
S-ign.
V-ile weather has turned
I-nto a sweet second April;
L-et the burning beacon
L-ead you to a thousand thrill.
A-fter the chill is over,
R-ain fades into the night;
A-llow the dusk to end,
M-orning sets things
A-right.
C-heers on your birth
H-ave brought pure pleasure;
O-ctober nineteenth morn
D-enies the dark of pressure.
E-cstasy on your birth
L-ets you feel the thrill;
Y-our life is filled with joy,
N-ew dawn denies the chill.
D-elight on your birth
E-xcites the heart and mind;
L-et your spirit realize
O-pening the soul is a good
S-ign.
S-atisfaction on your birth
A-llows you to be content;
N-either eye will turn blind
T-o the special big moment.
O-ne occasion of gladness, rapture and a million mirth;
S-ound of music and laughter are cheers on your birth.
