Ode to a Pitiful Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree Ode for a Pathetic Looking Tree

Marie M. Daniels
Oh Christmas tree your branches are only half there.
Your ornaments only appear on the front side.
You lean to the left but we don't care.
In the corner of the room you hide.
The kids decorated you this year.
A Charlie Browne Christmas look you've got.
A pretty pathetic Christmas tree to be precise.
You won't last much longer I fear.
Eventually your replacement will be bought.
A 6-foot, pre-lit Douglas Fir would be nice.

This Christmas Tree Ode was based on a true story.
