Gifts Come At This Time Of Year

I got to spend time with family and friends

that is the best gift of any and it sends

me into a spin and tends

to minimize other things.

I loved the gifts this year, a book of poetry

A bag that folds up and I can try

to fold it myself

Beautiful lotion

That reminds me of the ocean

A purse that was a good notion

A beautiful book mark to see

Another book to write about me, his mommy

A phone with much more space, from the least space to the most

And I got tickets to a puppet show of the Golden Girls roast

Complete with dinner and a pedicure

how cool is that with my girl, it will be for sure a cure!

I am truly excited about all of these and ahem,

I’m not sure anyone else was excited about what I got them.

It wasn’t my best year, well, these last two years.

I didn’t wrap, I didn’t remember everything, yes jeers.

I gave too many gift cards, that I called gift certificates to tout.

And my grandson didn’t know what I was talking about!

Next year will be better, well, maybe not, getting older, I am

I remember we spent hours over puzzles and playing cards

Then some of us were playing in the neighbors yards.

I know I got granny panties when I was young from Gram.

I whined about the panties, and mom said, it is the thought that counts

What amounts

to don’t cry, grandma is old.

So I guess I was told.

Peace and love, the best gifts of all I say.

This is about all I have to say today

other than Happy holidays to you and yours on this day!
