DONUM
Each day is a little life
Every waking and rising a little birth
Every fresh morning a little youth
Every going to rest and sleep a little death.
But no complacency, bitter
Yes, and now I'm given the donum,
filled with the joy of the world
A life becomes the donum.
Living for each day, a new chapter
A new sign and wonder
My hands hunger for the donum
Alas! my soul seeks.
Merry Xmas and Happy New Year in Advance
