Pretty Patty

Pretty Patty was a penny pincher of the worst kind She saved every single cent that she could find She carefully cut out coupons ,counting every one A bit bizarre but buying butter cheaper, oh what fun! Fashion forward not, wore second hand store stuff But our ditzy darling was a diamond in the rough She started scrimping and saving solely for a reason Her main mission was gladly giving gifts of the season To those who were woefully without she gladly gave With this joyful gesture a child's Christmas she might save 7/8/14
