Description
*You know my friend,
I got a gift:
a new year filled with hope,
with no fears...
I'm growing,
I'm ageing,
and so are you:
and I'm so warm,
while speaking with you.
I think I read someday
that joy has butterfly shape:
she comes and then she goes,
like a prcious rainbow that we can't blow,
like those sweet songs
we all should know...
Joy's a feeling
we connect with,
at times we see
she might remain in...
I'm a searcher,
and I'm a dreamer;
I'm a runner,
and I'm a winner:
joy's around,
she flies over life
we cannot stop her,
so let's get her ride.
Joy's around,
she sparkles near
and she'll surprise you
with all her gear.
This year soon starts,
I'm up, my friend
to take the best
out from new quests.
With love,
with days
you just can play
the cleanest,
the purest of all known games.
Joy's around,
her wings just spread:
so dear, let's go,
let's follow her.
I wish you now
to be with her
with lovely joy
during this year.
No matter where,
no matter distances,
you know I feel ya
through all my events.
I might seem far,
but ain't really:
our friendly sharings
are joy's true principle.*

Hi everyone :)
I missed this place and the beauty of art, but as some of you know, life of mine keeps being just too busy for allowing me pleasure of internet surfing.
I haven't painted almost for this entire 2005, but I was up to make a drawed calendar for friends (I will send you a copy in time for Xmas, my list is ready :)) and to wish all beautiful and tender people here a joyous Xmas time and a new year filled with joy.
My working tasks are gonna more makeable starting from end of January so I am confident I'll hang more around here after then :)
Okay, no more words... just share my hug, and know you are dear to my heart.
A kiss for friends, and happy time everybody :)
Have a most splendid december and Holy time, and rock on in 2006 :)
I know it's early time for that, but I might not be able to be around here in holiday times so...better sooner than ever ;)
Hugs and kisses, Meli xxxxxx :)

Ricordo che quando soffrivi per la perdita di tua cugina, ti dedicai un'immagine di te ritratta con ali "di farfalle". Magari non te ne sei nemmeno accorta, ma mi piace pensare che anche tu ti vedi come una farfalla di luce, esattamente come ti vedo io. Questo calendario delizioso. E sei tu al 100%. Buona Natale dolce creatura.
