I’ve been told I’ve expensive taste,
but I have to disagree,
for I’ve just seen the price list
of Christmas 2013.

The gifts are somewhat dated,
although I do like gold,
but it seems the most expensive
is dancing ladies, count them…nine!

The cost is rather pricey
at over $7,000,
but I just can’t quite envision
having dancers living in.

I haven’t beds nor bathrooms
for nine young active girls,
nor the funds that would be needed,
for all their girly things.

Although you may be thinking
of a different listed gift,
please be advised I’m asking
that you save your hard earned cash.

My needs are rather basic,
my wishes equally so,
may we share continued friendship
each day throughout the year.
