Good evening Wolfstar, thanks for that poem... Kipling isn't too much of a favorite of mine, however that poem of his certainly IS! It makes me think of our GWB, fits him to a Tee.
Our new year's eve plans changed due to snowy, sleety weather so we'll be having dinner at the same friend's house tomorrow afternoon. It seems no one wanted to venture out tonight and I think that's wise.
Happy New Year and love to all ... I don't get to check in at The Dose as much as I'd like these days but it's a safe, wonderful place filled with good cyber-friends.
Special prayers for snugs and her dad in their sorrow at this time.
Finally, God bless our president, VP, their families and our marvelous military who all continue to keep us free and safe.
Thank you and Happy New Year to you
