    I absolutely love this. The imagery was wonderful. This has happened to me on many a Christmas Eve with various toys, Trampoline, bikes etc. The flow was great in this poem. Fantastic Job.

    Superb poem!
    You managed to get across the frustration a parent would have trying into vain to get a present ready in time for the big day yet you portrayed in such a humorous way!
    It definitely made me smile.
    The only thing i can suggest is taking a word or two out of the very first line as it isn't really in context with the rest of the flow, i noticed the same thing on the last line of the third stanza. There just seems to be two many words in those lines which causes the flow to be a bit stilted.
    But you definitely have a diamond of a poem here, don't let my nit-picking dissuade you of that.
    Brilliant poem hun.
    Keep writing!!
    5/5
