If you are one of those procrastinators and you are still looking for that last gift (or the first one), allow me to provide a holiday love poem for you. Just clip the bits between the stars and present it to your wife (or husband) with my compliments.
A Christmas Gift
If you’re looking for a present
And you haven’t bought one yet
A rhyme of sweet affection
Is the best thing you can get
But since you’ve put off shopping
And you let December slide
I’ll share with you the one I wrote
For my delightful bride
******
You make the sugar sweeter
And you make the berries berry-er
Each day with you is Christmas
And I couldn’t be any merrier
This season I’m reminded
As we brim with love and cheer
How you fill my life with riches
And they thrill me through the year
You make my mornings brighter
And the evenings brighter too
The sun is always shining
Every moment I’m with you
For everything that we’ve been through
The struggles and the strife
You’ve been my inspiration
And the sunshine of my life
You please me and you tease me
And you’ve got me spoiled rotten
Darling, you’re the greatest gift
That I have ever gotten
So, if on Christmas morning
As you’re looking through your list
You do a little survey
And you find there’s one I missed
I’ll be the first one waiting
When they open up the stores
I’m here to make you happy
And all I have is yours
To see your lovely smile
Is my first and only goal
And I pledge to you forever
My heart, my love, my soul
****
So, friends, dear friends, and listeners
Here’s all you have to do
Just cut and paste these verses
They are my gift to you
