Mature Life Features

When the old guys were talking

About how they looked forward

To filling a stocking.

The conversation ran into a wall

When somehow cost became the topic

And no one could recall

What that had to do with the subject.

Through the mumbling and jumbling

And a bit of sputtering, too

The matter at hand came tumbling through,

“It’s Christmas you fools,”

Commented – er, shouted — an old fart,

“Whether its toys or tools,

It should come from your heart.”
