"Very Special - Khristmas"

Meerkats... They're the new

and brightest stars during Christmas!!!

They almost seem to have been born

to celebrate this date, or remind us to do it.

First, they save their best songs for that day...

Then they wait for the Three Meerkat Kings...

And, of course, they're ready to say thanks,
like a very little prayer in their hearts!

"Widest Dreams"

Being also, of course, Youssarian's birthday,

I had to make this new entry

dedicated only for him.

In an endless quest,
Youssarian left his world behind.
Under sun or rain,
to find a place and be the King.
Youssarian, you must know
that some Kings can rule from afar.
And though you walk long miles
there's no place as big as your heart.

Your horizon grew,
before your eyes, beyond your steps.
But, still you went on
with restless soul and tired feet.
Youssarian, you must know
that miles are much smaller than life.
And though you were crowned by the Sun
you'd have wasted long years.

In your endless quest,
there should have been a resting place.
In dark nights or days,
there's just one place where you can live.


And again, as I like to do, I used the music of a song which would go very well with Youssarian and all what he was:

"Castle In The Desert"

For the King who reached his eleventh year

in the hard and so dangerous Kalahari.

Happy Birthday, Great King!!!
