Well here we are…. Almost
Christmas 2011
And I’ve finished this years
“family & friends” poetic message and low and behold I came across the
Bloggers 2007 Christmas Message which I decided to reprint ‘cos I like the
idea!!!!
I write a Christmas message
for family and friends
each year ( it’s a 22 26 year
tradition) and this is the
third year I have done one
for my blog buddy’s.
I thought it might be a good
idea to post this early
as I know I have some poetic
friends who might want
to join in to this idea
(budding tradition?)
Bloggers 2007 Christmas
Message
Another Year has ended
And with this, I’m sure
you’ll agree
I’m broke…. my money’s
spended
Thank the lord blogging is
free
Once more I look back with
glee
At what’s given and taken
both ends
Just to think that we, Yeah,
you and me
Though still strangers,
we’re friends
Oh what stories we make-up
And with all of that hype
Cyberspace we fill up
With all the stuff that we
type.
It’s been said many times
We are closer in “here” than
with others
Here I’m searching for
rhymes
I’ve got it… in “here” we
are brothers.
As I read a sad, or happy,
post
I often sit with tear in eye
The thing that surprises me
most?
Just what has made me cry.
Another time I’ll burst into
laughter
As I admire the writing
skills
And I’m hooked, a fan
thereafter
With all my morning coffee
spills.
So to all of us, yeah, I’ll
include me too
Whose memories and
imagination
No matter whether false or
true
Write our posts and avoid
litigation.
To all of my blog buddy’s
Wherever from far or near
As you sit in your study’s
Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year
( If you celebrate some
other form of religion or belief
I hope you have a good one)
Better try to add a verse or
two
To bring this up to date
So this is from me to you
Yeah…. from your Aussie
mate.
It seems like my bloglist is
broken
There are so many
“retiree’s”
Such a lot of my original
contacts
Are no longer shooting the
breeze
To say they are missed
Is so obvious, and so
understated
But life has a habit of
getting in the way
For many the writing urge
just dissipated
There are other reasons for
giving blogging away.
But to those hearty souls
who continue
And are happy just blogging
away
May your lives be filled up
with gladness
As you find something new to
post each day.
