Niche Empires - YOU and MY CHRISTMAS

YOU And MY Christmas !

I have a list of People I know, all written in a book.
And every Year at Christmas time, I go take a look.
For that is when I realize that these names are now a part.
Not of the book they are written in, but of My very Heart.
For Every name stands for someone, sometime.

And in that meeting they've become the rhythm of the rhyme.
And while this sounds Fantastic for Me to make this claim,
I really feel we are composed of each remembered name.
Even if You may not be aware of any special link,
Just meeting You has shaped My life far more than You can think.
For once You've met somebody the years cannot erase the Memories
of a Pleasant Word or a Friendly face.

So never think My Christmas Greeting is just a mere routine
of names upon a Christmas list, forgotten in between.
For when I send a Christmas Shout that is addressed to You
It's because You're on a list of those I are indebted to.
For I are but a total of many I've met,
And You are also one of those I prefer never to forget,
And whether I have known You for many years or few,
In some ways You have a part in shaping things I do.
And every Year when Christmas comes I realize anew that the best
Gifts that life can give is Meeting those like YOU.

So may the spirit of Christmas, which forever and ever endures
leave it's Richest blessing in the Hearts Of YOU and YOURS.

Peace & Best Wishes To All

Tony.
