Presents
Christmas is a season,
For gifts of every
kind;
All the glittering,
pretty things
That Christmas shoppers
find;
Baubles, beads, and
bangles
Of silver and gold.
Anything and everything
That can be bought
or sold,
Is given at this
season
To place beneath
the tree;
For Christmas is
a special time
For giving lavishly.
But there's one rare
and priceless gift
That can't be sold
or bought,
It's something poor
or rich can give
For it's a loving
thought.
And loving thoughts
are something
For which no one
can pay,
And only loving hearts
can give
This priceless gift
away
