To the Ones I Love At Christmas Time- Ps Dedication

To all who see the good in me All that is lovely, sweet and fair To all who will not see the thorns Who nourish me with love and care To dear ones who have loved my rhymes Who with their words have spread the cheer To all those who have seen and loved This poetess consumed by fear To all those who have cared to write About me in their poetry Who’ve dedicated words to me And filled my heart with ecstasy To all those whom my heart holds dear Who are my sweet and precious friends I send this message out to you In it my love with yours now blends This Christmas time I thank my God That in my world you play a part You bring me sunshine after rain With joy you help my day to start You must know this and thus be sure Each one of you, I do adore My life would not as wholesome feel Had you not drenched its very core You move me and you make me see A wonder that's beyond compare What would I do without your gifts? I’d surely sink in dark despair Each one of you, a sparkling light Upon my heart’s dear Christmas tree You light my days and shine at night By giving of yourself to me And so, tonight my gift to you Is simple lines wrapped in my love A very merry Christmas all I plead from heaven up above Healing and health and happiness And wishes that your dreams come true This place to me, my second home And it’s because of folks like you.
