Christmas gifts

So nice to see
All the Christmas gifts under the tree
But what about the ones that don't fit under the tree
The ones that really mean a lot to you and me
A full tummy full of good food
A special song that puts me in a good mood
A kind word from a stranger
The baby Jesus in the manger
Earlier this month we had Christmas snow
Lighted houses that bring that holiday glow
Time off from work
Donald Trump and his comments that make me want to smirk
Larry David's impression of Bernie Sanders
Coleslaw from Colonel Sanders
Star Wars and Daddy's Home
A friend talking to me on the phone
All these things and many more
Give me hope that you can't find in a store

About this poem:

Just thinking of some of things that I enjoy during Christmas. Daddy's Home is a movie with Will Ferrell. He is one of my favorite comedians. I saw his Anchorman 2 movie four times in the movie theater.

I like Bernie Sanders very much, and hope, with your help, dear Americans, he will be successful. From where I am he seems a very nice granddad, like Santa

bringing Christmas gifts and hope to all of you over there across the pond. I wish the whole world a huge Christmas gift of Peace! As always you are very informative, dear poet, and I have developed a habit of making notes of names you mention for the follow up! Wish you Merry Christmas and gifts for the season that you would like most! Thank you for sharing!
