I love my Christmas tree Beautiful and white Even before any ornaments, lights and tinsel It is nice to see my old friend, out of the box again Then as the lights go on, the decorations, the tinsel The popcorn and cranberries strung together and hung on the tree with care My friend starts to glow filling the room with a light that covers everything like a hug Now it looks like Christmas again So my friend will vacation with me all of December Then go away in the box and rest for 11 months I will miss seeing the warm glow my friend shared each day But will see it again next December
