Humble Pie

It was right before winter vacation;
from the hall I hearda songof cheer.
I looked up and saw the door open;
in ran a herd of red nose deer.

They surrounded me with lots of giggles;
theyhad a big surprise for me.
One held a blue plate of gift cards;
“Look at them” they urged me with glee.

In the middle of the plate was a bear;
on my tree you’d find him that day.
Around the plate were so many gifts cards;
speechless, I had no words to say.

The gift cards were for places o’plenty;
through them all I then took a look.
Most for my three favorite restaurants;
and one where I’d soon buy a book.

So generous were all of these reindeer;
their parents were kind, thoughtful too.
Here find words of appreciation ;
“Thank you so much” to all of you.
