I have a list of people I know
all in my email address book,
and now at Christmas time
I have gone to take a look.
And that is when I realize
these names... they are a part,
not olf the pc they're stored in
but taken from 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
of an e-mail or 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 email
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
Have a wonderful christmas!
