What is the gift you give to you?
A glamorous game, a tinseled toy?
A whittling knife, a puzzle pack?
A train that runs on a curving track?
A Boy Scout book, a real live pet?
No, there's plenty of time for such things yet.
GIVE HIM A DAY for his very own.
Just your boy and you, alone.
A walk in the woods, a game in the park.
A fishing trip from dawn to dark;
Give him the gift that only you can.
Your companionship; hand in hand.
Games are outgrown, and toys decay.
But he'll never forget if you GIVE HIM A DAY.
