AS THE NEW YEAR APPROACHES,
we take stock at the Odd Fellows Hall.
Of treasures we have many
though shekels wane
in circumstances and the economy;
of words,
we will remain at the
telegrapher's key;
of true friends it rains cats and dogs;
well, minus one signficant cat -
vastly diminishing the deluge;
of lov-ed ones, they answer:
PRESENT!
and they are there.
Gauzy good health
gauzy good luck in the year of the rat
the uncertainties of these times
offer a net that could well
be breached.
What might the new year bring?
everyone wonders
..............
GONERS
BUT GOOD DANCERS
