In 1999, I decided to something special for our annual Christmas card since it would be the last one for the 20th Century for us. This poem and art, which I created, became that year's Christmas card. I will be donating ALL proceeds from the sale of this book to Roswell Park Women's and Children's Hospital in Buffalo, New York, and hopefully will be ordering a case of hardcover versions, once it is up on Amazon for sale in both formats, to donate to the gift shop at that hospital for sale there. I hope you will like this book, and I have set it as available for sharing if you would like to do so. Thank you for buying this book, and yes, there is something to love about every season. Sometimes you just have to think a bit harder to find it. May all your wishes for someone you love come true.
