TOAST TO THE VISITORS

by Mike Bauer, WSW Portobello Lodge #226
Edinburgh, Scotland

TONIGHT I HAVE THE PLEASURE
TO ALL I MUST CONFESS
TO GIVE TO YOU THIS TOAST
TO OUR VISITORS AND OUR GUESTS.

THE FELLOWSHIP YOU BRING TONIGHT
IS SOMETHING WHICH CAN'T COMPARE
YOU KNOW WE LIKE TO SEE YOU
AND GLAD YOUR ALWAYS THERE.

THE HARMONY , THE CHATS AND JOKES WE HAVE
WITH OUR OLD AND NEW FOUND FRIENDS.
WE WISH IT COULD LAST FOR HOURS,
AND SOME HOW NEVER END.

BUT.....ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO AN END
AND WE MUST GO ARE SEPARATE WAY.
WE HOPE YOU ENJOYED YOURSELF TONIGHT,
AND RETURN AGAIN SOMEDAY.

AND NOW I ASK THE MEMBERS
TO RAISE A GLASS IN CHEER
TO TOAST TO ALL OUR VISITORS
WHO SUPPORTED US THIS YEAR.
