<\/p>\nTwas the day before holidays, when all through the hall,<\/p>\n
Not an inbox was pinging, not a phone rang with calls.<\/p>\n
Computers were shut down, cell phones powered off,<\/p>\n
In hopes of time for family, hockey and golf.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The reps were busy cleaning off their desks,<\/p>\n
Looking forward to time for fun and rest.<\/p>\n
And I with my cream and two sugars I take,<\/p>\n
Had just settled down for a long coffee break.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When out on the floor there arose such a ruckus,<\/p>\n
I jumped from my chair to see what the fuss was.<\/p>\n
From the top of the stairs down to the lobby I peered,<\/p>\n
And saw one Naylorite looking back with fear.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve a beautiful tree, twinkling with lights,<\/p>\n
Decorated with toys and Christmas delights.<\/p>\n
A menorah that glows, a Kwanzaa rug too,<\/p>\n
Toys for tots and delectable food.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cBut through our holiday hustle, we cannot forget,<\/p>\n
About those whose business we never regret.<\/p>\n
They trust us to create content that\u2019s not rubbish:<\/p>\n
Our clients whose communications we publish!\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re right!\u201d I exclaimed, \u201cLet\u2019s do something grand.<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s bring in the fanfare, let\u2019s strike up the band!<\/p>\n
Our associations are the reason we\u2019re here,<\/p>\n
And our advertisers keep the presses humming all year.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We enlisted the help of some Naylor elves,<\/p>\n
To stock winter cheer along all of our shelves.<\/p>\n
Bright paper was unwrapped and ribbons unreeled.<\/p>\n
But what could we gift to such divergent fields?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
To healthcare, to legal, education and HR?<\/p>\n
To meeting planning, manufacturing, and management of cars?<\/p>\n
To building maintenance, construction, farming and soil?<\/p>\n
To utilities, architecture, retail and oil?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u201cA thick magazine!\u201d said someone, \u201cFilled with good news,<\/p>\n
Or a directory, career center, learning platform they\u2019ll use.<\/p>\n
To build their image when things appear down,<\/p>\n
And be reminded of our passion the entire year round.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
So we wrote and photographed and curated contents,<\/p>\n
Programmed and marketed and staffed many events.<\/p>\n
We polished our AMS; job board listings we sold,<\/p>\n
In our efforts to make customers look like gold.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Your success, dear viewer, propels our attitude,<\/p>\n
Working with you fills us with gratitude!<\/p>\n
Through highs and lows, for associations we\u2019re not quitters,<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll shout it from the roof, and post it on Twitter!<\/p>\n

Our warmest wishes to you and yours,<\/p>\n

Happy holidays to all, and to all a good night!<\/p>\n
