To the Ones I Love In PS- Christmas Dedication
To all who see the good in me
And praise what's lovely, sweet and fair
To all who will not see the thorns
But 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:
I hope our friendship never ends
This Christmas time I thank my Lord
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 touched 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 deep 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 gifts to you
Are 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.
Eileen Manassian
To all my PS friends who are dear and precious to my heart. I wish you an amazing Christmas.
