"With vivid shout"     [new year's poem]

With vivid shout the newborn annum
cries in the phrase of the biting wind
she's coming out!   she's here by damn!
uncork the bottle!   let's begin!

Let rise upon     the raging air
the pull of joy   in oral scream!
for silence loves   to feel her hair
constrained by fresh   & vocal dream





This responds to (and argues with, and fairly follows the form of) Kaashyapeya (a.k.a. Arka Mukhopadhyay)'s worthy poem With dying breath the dying year.
