A heartful new year wish to you and yours
Here with a loaf of bread beneath the bough,
A flask of wine, a book of verse --and thou
Beside me singing in the wilderness--
And wilderness is paradise enow.
The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
May your new year be filled with joy and love,
and may you share the paradise with your dearest ones.
all the best,
Pim

Lovely And always true (with the right thou, of course).
Hate to nitpick, but I think the last word of the last line is really 'enow' not 'now' - meaning 'enough'
Happy New Year!

Owen,
You're right, not a nitpick at all. Thanks for catching the typo.
cheers,
Pim
