My Gift

I have no pretty packages with big shiney bows
to put under a tree with lights all aglow
No gift certificates full of money
just a worn lil heart full of love for you honey
 
They say tis the season for sharing and giving
so I give you my heart for as long as we're living
Every day is Thanksgiving and Christmas too
as long as I get to share it with you 

You bring me joy and love all year long
with you by my side, how could I go wrong
So here is my gift that I give to you
my heart, my love, and my life too 

I hope you enjoy this gift that I give to you
all of my love, loyal and true
So to answer your question, so honest and true
yes, my darling, I will and I do

TuLisha, you remind us of the things that are really important in life. Not expensive gifts of "certificates full of money," but love that will last eternally. I must share this with someone special. It says everything I feel in my heart. You have a beautiful soul, TuLisha! Love, Carolyn
