Dreams Beside Their Pillow

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow,
follow.

Try to remember when life was so tender
When noone wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender
When love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember
then follow
follow.

Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt the heart will hollow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
follow.

There are still heroes out there who need and deserve our support. I could really use your help in gathering items for the soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Those young men and women are risking their lives so that hopefully the events of three years ago will never be repeated. Please, send anything you can spare, from books to DVDs to CDs. Anything. They need a way to relax, they need to know that they're appreciated, and they need to know we care. If you don't have anything to donate, then donate your time - please, take a minute on today of all days to write a note to a soldier, tell them that you love them for their unfathomable sacrifice. You can email your notes here, or mail your donations to me care of the Daily Prophet, and I'll forward them on to various units in both countries. Please, they need to remember that their efforts aren't going unnoticed.

The Daily Prophet
PO Box 3114

Thank you. If you'd like to know more about how to donate, where the donations are going, and why, please visit The Daily Prophet.
