Merry Christmas to my AP family,
you gave me hope in all humanity.
We share our hopes and dreams,
a wealth of love is what it seems.
When I am feeling down or blue,
I know I can always count on you.
Each of you might have guessed,
make me feel as I’ve been blessed.
Far away, yet still close to my heart,
each one of you plays a special part.
My family you are all so dear to me,
and I hope your holidays full of glee.
While I’m gathering with family here,
in this poet’s heart know you’re near.
We all share a special commonality,
your work brought each of you to me.
It seems I read between all your lines,
familiarity in your life’s much like mine.
I can feel the love through cyberspace,
you all just radiate with love and grace.
May the holidays bring you good cheer,
that continues throughout the New Year.
Know I am always here for each of you,
it’s just what a family is supposed to do.

I send you gift from way Downunder
the reason why is not a wonder
'Tis because you've filled my heart
with faith in humanity...
no poisoned dart!
My gift is filled with many a
and promises that you I'll bug
If not for thee I'd have drowned in sorrow
Here's cheers to US and a bright tomorrow!
MWAH

My Dear Dawn!
Thank you so much for your friendship and understanding of all my little problems and and ever changing emotions. Your messages are a highlight of each day and it has been a joy to share with you the ups and downs of our lives which seem so similar. This poem is a beautiful tribute to those of us who care so much about each other. May your Christmas be extra special this year with additional family around and especially with Ashley and Aiden. Your friendship is near and dear in my heart and I'm so proud that you are my AP sister.
Love you,
Carolyn

My Pleasure!
I seriously mean it all of my AP family has in one way or another enhanced my life for the better. Each one of you are more alike than unalike. Kind, considerate, compassionate and human. All of us can relate to the human in the other. I also enjoy our daily messages, helps to have a willing ear and to trust one another enough to share our ups and downs is better than any therapy! I am proud to be your sister too, I hope the New Year is a good one for you and yours. Thank you for your lovely comments and applause.:
