Fifty Shades of December

Thomas Hardy

Once more the year begins. The first month of the Gregorian calendar. Cold winds howl, the landscape shivers, frost, snow, ice are the many blankets for the land. Daylight is thin, it arrives late and leaves early ceding the hours to shadow and the ink of night. 1 - Fifty Shades of December - An Introduction 2 - Ode Written on The First of December by Robert Southey 3 - A Calender Of Sonnets - December by Helen Hunt Jackson 4 - The Idlers Calendar.
