Merry
Christmas
Good Thought For the Holiday |
|
I have listed
folks I know, all written in a book,
and every year
at Christmas time I go and take a look.
And that is
when I realize that these names are a part
Not of the book
they’re written in but of my very heart.
For each one
stands for someone who has crossed my path some time,
And in that
meeting they’ve become the “Rhythm of the Rhyme”.
And while it
sounds fantastic for me to make this claim,
I really feel I
am composed of each remembered name.
And while you
may not be aware of any special link,
Just meeting
you has shaped my life more than you can think.
For once
you’ve met somebody the years cannot erase
The memory of a
pleasant word or a friendly face.
So never think
my Christmas cards are just a mere routine,
Of names upon a
Christmas list forgotten in between.
For when I send
a Christmas card that is addressed to you,
It’s
because you’re on that list of folks I am indebted to.
For I am but a
total of the many folks I’ve met,
And you happen
to be one of those I prefer not to forget.
And whether I
have known you for many years or few,
In some way you
have had a part in shaping things I do.
And every year
when Christmas comes I realize anew,
The biggest
gifts that life can give is meeting folks like you.
And may the
spirit of Christmas that forever and ever endures,
Leave its
richest blessing in the heart of you and yours.

Merry Christmas and God Bless,
