Christmas presents

Filed under: poems — Blues @ 10:43 am

What do they want for Christmas ?

Every year the same

Thinking about gifts for others

A book, some socks, a game ?

 

It’s better to think of others

Than always to think of me

But getting it right at Christmas

Is never a certainty.

 

Have they already got one ?

Perhaps they’ve got two or three

Will they want chocolate golf balls ?

I wouldn’t if it were me.

 

Whatever you give at Christmas

And when the excitement mounts

Remember to think of others

It’s really the thought that counts.
