Still Wonderful

After that fateful Christmas in Bedford Falls,
business picked up at the Bailey bank.
George spruced up the old house -
and even fixed the stair rail finial.

He'd saved enough to buy his girl a bike
but Zuzu's pedals were slightly out of reach.
So her dad lowered the seat a tad
and life was wonderful that Christmas
at the Bailey hearth and home
just as I truly hope it is in yours.

I read recently that the actress who played zuzu didn't get to see the final movie until she was nearly 50 with children of her own. None of the movies that adopted the theme of Wonderful life ever measured up to it in my opinion. I enjoyed your poem
