A Christmas Tree A Christmas Tree

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree! With dark green needled memories Of childhood dreams and mysteries Wrapped present like in front of me.

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree! I glimpse a past wherein i see The child that then grew into me Not forward fast but haltingly.

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree! A time for being with family A time thats gone so fleetingly Yet lives for always deep in me.

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree! When twelfth night comes whole hauntingly One lingered look and then i see No Christmas tree where it would be.

A Christmas tree! A Christmas tree! With feelings now felt longingly No corner in my house to see The magic of that Christmas tree.
