Marge's Teensy Weensy Wish Teensy weensy was the title Grand and lovely was the song Small the Christmas tree all lighted Great the heart that sang along Little verse of Christmas greeting Knows not of it’s magnitude For the love that I am reading From enormous lights exude Tiny is the unmarked measure Thought to dwell in friendship’s pen She could never know the pleasure Nor the wealth bestowed a friend I would reinvent a title To a verse inscribed by Marge I would make the letters fly to To places high and spaces large I would decorate a tall An everlasting evergreen To grace the valley of my soul To live forever on the screen It’s just a teensy weensy strum But, oh the resonance it brings A message of a grandeur strung On harps of glory’s angel strings If she can shine a light as this A little star upon a tree Why not us all, a teensy wish Of love around a teensy tree Each tree a little speck of light Each wish a spark of Christmas cheer A candle glowing in the night Of peace and love throughout the year Thank you Marge for your little stars of friendship and love Liz |
