January is grim and grey in its usual way And heart’s cockles need warming beside crackling and sputtering logs Winter's ghosts are shriven   Undone by jolly festivities and bacchanalia Singing ‘Auld Lang Syne’ and holding hands we raise the ullaloo to loved ones lost, And so returns, the New Year.

January
January is grim and grey in its usual way And heart’s cockles need warming beside crackling and sputtering logs Winter's ghosts are shriven   Undone by jolly festivities and bacchanalia Singing ‘Auld Lang Syne’ and holding hands we raise the ullaloo to loved ones lost, And so returns, the New Year.
