    What do I want for Christmas?

    my children gather ’round to ask.

    Come closer and I’ll tell you,

    putting the little one on my lap.

    My son guesses a pocket knife,

    all those boxes to open and fold.

    My daughter guesses aftershave,

    so I don’t smell quite so old.

    Those gifts are all nice, I say,

    and maybe some dark chocolate, too!

    But all I ever really want for Christmas,

    are hugs and handmade cards from you.
