It's a Wrap

We wrap up a present,
Wrap up a tale;
Wrap a package that we plan
To send out through the mail.

We wrap a scarf around us;
Wrap some cold cuts tight,
So the insides won't fall out
Each time we take a bite.

A comic wraps his set up 
And now the time is here,
As I am sure you've figured out,
To wrap up one more year.
