Season of Joy

Are you thinking of buying
A fine gift this year
For your mom or your sister
Or one you hold dear?

A sweater or jacket
Might keep them quite warm
But something much better
Won't fade or get torn

You're wondering surely
What should I get then?
Well, let me suggest something
That's more than a whim

A day spent together
In sweet reverie
Recalling the good times
And places you've seen

A box of fresh cookies
You baked on your own
Or a luncheon together
You prepare right at home

What could be better
Than trinkets and toys?
It's making sweet memories
In this Season of Joy
