My Nana's Gift
A Sweater I Regret
Knitted for me with Nana's love in colors she thought best
A fake smile upon my face, I thanked her for the sweater
But to myself I couldn't help but think, I wish her tastes were better.
My mother made me wear the thing
Cause to my Nana joy it bring
Why couldn't they just see?
How wearing it embarrassed me?
My mother said to be polite is a lesson we all must learn
I suppose that means that I cannot ever my sweater burn
The only hope that I have now, the only one I know
Is that one day soon, the sweater I'll outgrow.
