Unmatched Gifts
Hustling and bustling trying to make it to the saftey latched door,
not noticing that she has dropped her supply of tinsil on the floor.
This is the Christmas, the one that will forever be remembered,
the lights outside will glisten, and the turkey will be tender,
She rushes to her job to try and pay for the Xmas fines,
Not realizing she has left behind he little boy's Wish list behind.
She comes back to get it, to find the house in a mess,
The turkey, presents, and now cleaning just adds to the stress.
So she tells her son to behave, for their is much work to do,
but the last words out his mouth were, "I want to spend it with you."
But she was too busy moving to hear these simple 7 words,
Inside her mind "So much to do" were the only things she heard.
So she went and got the turkey, the presents were safe in the car,
She thought it would finally be perfect, but money only reaches so far.
On the Eve of Christmas it was time for her son's play
Well everything is taken care of, I can take off this day.
So she went to his school, and enjoyed the show,
Thinking about her son made her realize how big he had grown.
As they pulled into the garage, she felt something was wrong,
She wondered why these feeling were lasting so long
She looked inside and saw the presents were gone, nowhere to be found,
she couldnt hide her remorse and just cried aloud,
Mommy, dont cry, we don't need those things,
Because the joy of having u, no present can ever bring.
So this is a lesson, to those who have gone off the path,
you may think your doing great, but u can still come in dead last!
I dont know if it provides the feelin overall, but it provideds some. |
