It's a Wrap
I’m not too swift at wrapping gifts
But I make an attempt,
So therefore from critiques I think
That I should be exempt.
I purchase pretty paper
Though I rarely splurge on bows,
Yet sometimes tie a ribbon ‘round
(Where my ineptness shows).
I then attach a card or else
A gift tag to and from,
Just so the right recipient
Knows whence the gift has come.
Since I take great care when wrapping,
The results may make you scoff.
Still, the best part of a present
Is to rip that paper off!
