CHRISTMAS GIFTS I CANNOT GET

 

Every year we will regret

The gifts that we cannot get…

Like a brand new car

Or a giant bar

Of beeswax for skier Suzette.

–

I’d like to put my vote here,

For sugar-free ginger beer…

With kick that sails

Beyond ginger ales,

To that stuff I’d certainly steer!

–

I suppose it’s too much to ask,

To simplify my modeling task…

A coal trestle guide

With examples world-wide,

From present-times and from the past.

–

And while I’m thinking so wild,

I’m hoping to be profiled…

To sell my book

So folks will look

And I’ll get a check once in a while!
