T’was the twenty-second of December
And we decorated the tree!
Bulbs and lights, figures and pictures,
And one centerpiece nativity.
Then, of course, up on the top,
Was our traditional plastic star.
It’s getting old and a little yellowed –
It’s come along pretty far!
The tree looks so lovely, glowing bright,
With the decorations all around.
All the ornaments, from new to old,
Fill it from the tip to the ground.
Somehow, if makes such a lovely picture,
Just to look at with delight.
But, we don’t have many days left to enjoy –
Christmas day – why it’s nearly in sight!
To the KING be all the glory!
Pretty!!!
Oh, I like the poem too!
Thank you! Oh, and that ornament belonged to my Mom’s family when she was a little girl. :)
