Transcendental Sonnet #345:
Happy New Year... Somehow

Annus mirabilis two thousand four
The world is mad but we are mad with love
This year is ours the year we have lived for

A year together set apart above
All years before beyond all other years
I hear the future just outside the door
This is the year we overcome our fears
Find happiness we never knew before
This is the year we triumph over tears
Through strong love ever only always more

Though we will always struggle with the past
We struggle side by side as comrades now
And we will be the victors at the last

A happy new year to us both... somehow
