(To give then take)

I shut my eyes for a few seconds today
Missing you, I wished you were here

Wow, what a gift* so well-presented
Making me absolutely elated
Opening with glee I’m now prompted
With excitement, cheerfully spirited!

For its message says I’m fully forgiven
That assures me peace, and abode in heaven!

Thanks for the gift with eternal guaranty 
No...

There was a fella I knew who worked with hammer and chisel

Made carvings in wood that could make your eyes sizzle.

Lights of the city are twinkling across
arches of the rivers and shining down
as if to illuminate the jolly path

I questioned my inner mind to just see where I belong..
A gift so special torn away...

You gave us food and we took your land

It's not right to make promises grand

  We took all your stuff

  Till you said enough --

And gave General Custer his last stand...

He promised to love me forever
Then again he was just being clever
He took back his love

While her smiles reflected in the purplish drupe
She said “A treat for your melodious voice
A gesture for helping me with my choir’s songs.”

And so I took the present home
Shared with my sweet sisters, dad and...

PoetDestroyer is the name of she
and she's under the delusion that she crushed me,
but an Indian Giver is yours truly.
I take back my slam crown of royalty.
