[Sunrose]: 3.The perfect gift

The perfect gift
Music tingles in my ears,
all around I see reindeers.
A bookshelf filled with ornaments,
the load so heavy that it bends.
The snow globe shaken by each hand,
can’t resist, can’t let it stand.
The elf that looks so cute within,
Look! A snowflake on her chin!
The music, snow and decoration,
fill me with appreciation.
Blinding, but pure the colour white,
and all the lights that shine so bright.
The smell of trees is tickling my nose,
and in the flash I strike a pose.
Captured in a moment, with cheeks glowing,
a smile so big my teeth are showing.
A secret kiss below the mistletoe,
from my love who charms me so.
Family gathered around the fire,
this is the Christmas I desire.
Dear Santa, grant this wish for me,
I’ll be good, I swear, you’ll see!
