Candy Cane- Girl

Every year, I become the recipient of at least 2 packages telling me that I am under orders not to open until Christmas. I never did look as a child, I couldn't stand thinking about how sad my parents would be if I was caught. Now, it's just a sense of honor-- I obey the gentle order, although the suspense just about kills me and I have to usually hide them in a closet- Out of sight, Out of mind- and while I am always delighted, it's so darned nerve-wracking!
My hand to heaven, I will not do that to anyone!

I shall obey even if it kills me. Darn it!
