      ~~~~~~~~~

  To all of the poets
    in Passions
  I wish you a
    a Joyous Noel.
  May your muses
    be filled with
    new spirit
  With each tinkle
    and chime
    of a bell.
  May fine health
    and good luck
    surround you
  While true love
    envelops
    your hearts.
  Raising my glass
    I toast your
    magnificent talents
  And bow in awe
    as I make my
       depart.

     ~~~~~~~~~~~~    

        MERRY CHRISTMAS ONE AND ALL !!!!

EagleScorpion - oops, you slipped in while I was replying to scorpio. I'm not going anywhere except to celebrate with friends and my hubby's family, and do some last minute shopping. I'm not leaving for good!! lol. Makes me feel good to know that you don't want me to leave. Thankyou and blessing of the season.

Chris,
Awww, you are so sweet! And many returns to a very sweet lady. Merry Christmas.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
