32 Christmas Gift
32.
Christmas Gift
I cannot give you a teddy bear
Nor a pair of shoes so fair
Not an apple, grapes nor pear
Never a soft-cushioned chair.
I cannot give you a bounty cash
Earned so slow, but spent so fast
Hurts my pocket, gives it lash
Damn that money that don't last.
The only thing I can give you, dear
Is a greeting so sincere
“May your Christmas for this year…
Be filled with smiles – full of cheer!”
