A birthday Wish
A birthday Wish
Have you ever wanted something beyond the norm,
Something besides a nice dress or book?
Have you noticed the conclusions that some form
Due to this approach you took?
Everyone has their own take,
When it comes to their given day,
Those requests they do make,
Shouldn't instantly be tossed away.
If it doesn't come with a ribbon,
That doesn't mean that no merit is there,
For tis the thought that comes with that gift given,
That'll demonstrate how much you cared.
Giving a gift card without a second glance,
Will show no effort on display,
As one should gather a rough idea in advance,
Otherwise, your original approach might seem cliche
I find it best to note each preference,
As not every gift needs a price tag,
Remembering these details makes a difference,
Looking for a gift shouldn't be thought of as a way to brag.
Some of the best gifts I obtained,
Whether it was caroling or being taken early on Sundays,
For me, more appreciation for that gift had remained,
Then on those gifts which others had insisted to pay.
Keep this in mind when looking for anyone you care about,
As it is the thought of the other we can't forsake,
Even if we can't figure their reasoning out,
If they hadn't wanted it those requests they wouldn't make
