ONE YEAR ON


WE'RE ONE TODAY !


Gather around my bloggy friends
And warm yourself by the flickering flame
Of our solitary birthday candle
That toasts the natal hour we came.


One year ago to this very day
The Dew of Hermon hit the Net
And blog by blog for all that time
We’ve tried to hold you in our Web!


With funnies, soul food and other such
These pages have been filled
And poetry and personal comment
At times for good at times for ill!


The tranquil hours were here displayed,
As well as stormy darkening days,
Poets, philosophers and dancing clowns
Some worthy saints and cheeky knaves.


But through all the frantic rush
There’s One that permeates the whole
In every word and every line
The Lord of Life is King of all.


So raise your glass to the infant Dew
And take your draught with heart and cheer
And wish us well to steer this ship
Through all the days of another year.

Although I never got to taste the cake, nevertheless I still wish the Dew of Hermon a happy birthday and hope the next year will be just as fruitful.
