I remember a simpler time,
when gifts were toys.
There were no smart phones,
and there were no drones.
Everyone wanted a cordless,
remote control RC Racer,
or a supersoker.
I remember walking,
around the neighborhood,
with my dad,
admiring the houses,
on Christmas Eve.
Christmas lights were enormous,
and not holographic lights,
projected on the wall.
I remember when,
Old Ninja Turtle action figures,
Stretch Arm Strongs,
and rollerblades,
always made a good present.
Wow! It is hard to believe,
I remember these things.
(Sigh)
Yet, that was years ago.
Still, it is a blessing,
to now be able,
to buy gifts,
for my nieces and nephews.
