Graphic By Annes Place

~*~*~*~
People are busy buying presents
for Christmas time is near
Desiring to buy the perfect gift
for ones they hold so dear

Almost seven years ago you gave
the most perfect gift to me
Nothing else will ever compare
neither jewels nor riches I might see

When you reached inside yourself
and gave to me your love
No greater gift can be given
for it was sent from up above

For you gave to me your promise
when you gifted me with your heart
Vowing forever and for always to love me
and for eternity to let not your love depart
~*~*~*~
