Once a Christmas Eve

There was a couple

Loving and caring

Always out for a chuckle

But yet they were poor

No money for them

Making owns clothes

Always having to hem

But this day was special

For the girl with long hair

Flowing and beautiful

She just didn’t care

Except for the boy

With a gold pocket watch

Inherited for generations

But no love would be lost

So they finally meet

Upon Christmas Day

Snow on the ground

Such a beautiful place

But the girl waits

Now without locks

Instead now she has

A gold chain for a watch

And the boy has no way

From now on to tell time

He bought many combs

With his last dime

But they meet each other

And they stare in shock

How much they gave up

Was for lost

But then what was remembered

Was what this day was about

No presents or gifts but

About love no doubt

They hugged about how

Much they gave up

But more of the fact

Of how much they loved
