A Gift Folks Keep On Giving

I am popular at holiday time
    a gift folks keep on giving
  So many varieties and colors of me
    stores stock me to make a living

  Once cigars were real competition
    though today they face fierce opposition
  I'm the last-minute gift that hits the spot
    My lot's everlasting ~ tied up in my knot

How about a compromise here: Tie-dyed box of chocolate. :)

GW, I haven't worn one in, oh, say six or seven years, so please...not that for a gift. I'd have to re-gift it!

Well, if you 'tie one one,' you can wear several the same night! :) gw
