For January Am I

By Companion

IN a coat of gleaming armor, Like a warrior I set forth; With a snow cloud for my banner, I march from the frozen North.
The wind is my brazen trumpet, My spear an icicle bright; A million courier snowflakes Ride before me through the night.
But though we come in the tempest, Which I and my comrades love, 'Tis not a desolate message We bear you from above.
The words I shout through my trumpet Sound not like a battle-cry, But ring out clear, “A happy new year!” For January am I!
— Companion.
