My Christmas E-mail
I have a list
Of people I know,
All logged in my computer.
And now at Christmas time,
I have gone to take a look.
And that is when I realize
That these names are a part,
Not of the computer
They're stored in,
But of my heart.
For each name stands
For someone who has
Crossed my path sometime,
And in that meeting
They've become
The rhythm in each rhyme.
And while it sounds fantastic
For me to make this claim,
I feel that I'm composed of
Each remembered name.
And while you may not be
Aware of any special link,
Just meeting you has
Changed my life,
A lot more than you think!
For once I have
Met somebody, the years Cannot erase, the memory
Of a pleasant word
(or E-mail)
Or of a friendly face.
So never think
My Christmas E-mails
Are just a mere routine,
Of names upon an address
List, forgotten in between.
For when I do a
Christmas E-mail that
Is addressed to you, it's
Because you're on the list
Of people, I'm indebted to.
And whether I have
Known you
For many Years or few,
In some way you
Have been a part
Of shaping things I do.
And now that Christmas
Has come, I realize anew,
The best gift life can offer
Is meeting people like you.
