Today I got a present
in a big box, with a bow.
It read "don't open "til today"
What's in it I don't know.

It's something that I've not received
and never may again,
I wonder what is in it?
What did this box contain?

The card read "Because I love you,
I planned this big surprise,
It's filled with things I know you'll love,
I hope you'll realize.

That you're the only one
Who can peek beneath this bow.
But you must open it today,
Or it's treasure, never know.

If you wait until tomorrow,
All your joy will fade away,
When you finally realize,
The Present is TODAY!"
