The Christmas Tree
Once a beauty, a sight for all to behold
Now a sad charlie brown replica with a story to be told
Whispered promises of gifts of time and care
Oh how the promises now float freely in the air
If only this tree could have felt the warmth of the sun
Who knows then what it would have become
Tangled limbs of times in the past
Leaves falling and falling off so fast
The words of love left and pinned on by you and me
have now started to also fall from this tree
Oh no there goes the love word
Adore
now look there goes the one that says
No I love you more
All gone now except for one left right below a small pine knot
I found the love words
Please Forget Me Not
Yes neglected and left unattended for so long
but the root system is still quite strong
Maybe this tree can be restored, to what it was so long before...
All the love words could be returned along with all the leaves
All you have to do is follow through with all love promises
and *Believe
