Poem Title:
Poem
The little fir tree was feeling extremely sad it was tiny compared to its mum and its dad When people saw the tree they just walked away and chose a much larger tree for their Xmas display The wind helped the fir tree waggle its branches and the tree tried so hard to get admiring glances Sadly people said ‘that tree’s much too small, it wouldn’t look right in our lounge or the hall’ All of a sudden the little tree became aware of a disabled young lad in a motorised chair Peter beamed when he saw the little fir tree and said ‘mum this tree is perfect for me’ His mother said ‘Peter are you really sure there’s lots to see, we could look at more’ Peter said to his mum ‘this little tree is ideal and when its decorated, your heart it will steal’ Peter said ‘mum, it will be so easy for me I’ll be able to decorate this little fir tree We’ll buy baubles from the Christmas shop and I can reach to put the gold angel on top’ The store man overheard the boy’s conversation and was so impressed by Peter’s determination He waived the purchase price of the little tree Peter left the store smiling, he was very happy Peter decorated the little tree all on his own and it took pride of place in their cosy home His mother’s so proud of her determined boy and the little fir tree gave them so much joy.
