My Special List


I have a list of folks I know, all written in a book.
And every now and then, I go and take a look.

That is when I realize, these names ... they are a part.
not of the book they're written in ... but taken from my heart.

For each name stands for someone, who has crossed my path sometime.
and in that meeting they have become ... the reason and the rhyme.

Although it sounds fantastic, for me to make this claim.
I really am composed of, each remembered name.

Although you're not aware, of any special ink.
just meeting you has shaped my life, more than you would think.

So please don't take my greetings, as just a mere routine.
your name was NOT ... forgotten in between.

For when I send a greeting, that is addressed to you.
it's because you're on that list ... of folks I'm indebted to.

Whether I have known you, for many days or few.
in some ways you have a part, of shaping things I do.

I am but a total ... of many folks I've met.
you are the one I would prefer ... never to forget.

Thank you for visiting my page!
