Proudly standing there
In the
town’s main square
The
Christmas tree stands tall
Admired by
one and all
Decked with
coloured lights
Of red and
green and blue and white
And every
kind of coloured bauble
Short and
long, large and small
Candy canes
and bows adorn it
And myriad
forms of other trinkets
This wonder
easily catches the eye
Of every
busy passer by
Who simply
marvel at the sight
With open
mouthed delight
Who before
they continue on their way
Have to
wipe a tear away
But it’s
not the tree reaching to the sky
That brings
a tear to the eye
But the
parcels of every shape and size
A festive
feast for weary eyes
A testament
to people’s generosity
Sitting
beneath this wondrous tree
Such a
generous response to the endeavour
Thank God
for those who know the answer
When want
and need begs the question
Praise be
to those who never forget
With hearts
so full of Christmas spirit
