Though it may not seem like it at first glance, this is a Christmas song. Its one of my favorites that I have written, in fact. Literary Echo is all about Teddy Lupin dealing with Christmas without his parents, and trying to find family in other places. If I have learned anything from the Harry Potter and online community, it is that family isn't just blood, it is who we choose to share our worlds with. So, in that respect, this song is for everyone who has made the last 5 years of my life incredible beyond explanation. Thank you all very much.

Also, if there were to be a contest where you could win free stuff, I suppose the details for that would be here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiZhAQFtLgE

Lyrics:

Every snowflake is a reflection of what we see in it
The joy and heartbreak, the loud sorrow of what might have been
The logs burn my house colors, and crackle in time with my guitar
The songs I have written and the meanings that I still pick apart


They say I have a voice just like my father
Aunt Ginny says I have his way with words
But they're gone


I know, that were not really family but
Ive learned were all only blessed with a short time
Winter can seem awfully lonely but
I'd love if you would be mine

Uncle Harry snaps along and says you;re getting pretty good
He'd tell you he's so proud of you, if only he could
The holidays are tough, its when I miss them the most
Its a Priori Incantatum where I'm looking for their ghosts

"Every snowflake is a reflection of what we see in it." Holy wow. That is such an amazing line. I love the writing of this song. SO much.

You're so talented, Alex.

DH moment: *prepares for the torches and pitchforks* I loved the epilogue. I know, I know, but it was such a perfect little snapshot of Harry and the others' lives after the war. Harry grows up, he lives, he's happy, he has adorable children with awesome names. I love that we get that look into the hope and the love, the future.:D

I can't believe I didn't find this song until now, you did amazingly, especially with the lyrics! For such a large fan of Remus, Tonks, and Teddy, this song said LOADS.

A few things - 1) You sorted Teddy into Gryffindor! So few do that! So I definitely loved that.  2) The lyric that says: "They say I have a voice just like my father/Aunt Ginny says I have his way with words" was AMAZING. I agree with that too!

Just thought I'd leave those thoughts with you.
