WITH A BARRIE BOOK by RICHARD EUGENE BURTON

First Line: AN OLD YEAR DIES, AND A NEW IS BORN
Last Line: LO, HERE'S BARRIE!
Subject(s): BOOKS; HATE; HOLIDAYS; LAUGHTER; LIES; LOVE; NEW YEAR; READING;
AN old year dies, and a new is born;
And the world holds lies and hate and scorn.
But love and laughter are in it, too,
Laughter and love, they can be for you:
Dark things pass, and the dear things tarry;
Lo, here's Barrie!
