Will you be a big tree,

a small tree, a wide tree,

a skinny tree, or maybe

eight feet tall or more?

Will you be a real tree,

a fake tree, a green or

white or purple tree?

I hope that you will fit

through our door.

then it couldn’t look better.

Will you be a blue spruce,

a white pine, a fraser

or balsam, the kind where

all the needles fall off?

Will you be

a bright tree with

tinsel, a star or an

angel, with lights that

can blink on and off?

It doesn’t matter

if it’s artificial or grown.

It’s the best because it’s

in your home.
