Summer Present

Put a bow on it. It’s me

I’ve wrapped carefully

between snowman and

sly penguins. A tinkered
trinket passed from father

to father lost, forgotten,

than resurfaced. I’m

not going to make it to
next Christmas. I’ll leave

it under the tree next

to your Mustang with a tag

must stay. Don’t lose it, I
put a bow on it.
