Anna de Brémont was an American journalist, poet, and singer. She spent the majority of her career in England and authored two poetry collections. They were Sonnets and Love Poems and Love Poems, published in 1892 and 1889 respectively.
‘The Parting of the Year’ depicts the Old Year as a departing lover, blending farewell sorrow with the New Year’s hopeful arrival.
The midnight hour had come. With tearful eyes
And sad the Old Year strained I to my breast.
For we were loth to part—his lips I pressed
All tenderly in answer to his sighs.
