A Christmas Memory-Contest

Matching pj's, rainbow colored tinsel with LED lights,
                 Gazing, disbelief as the pine slowly declines onto the floor,
                       We all laugh with silliness while grammy has fallen beneath it,
                             There the tree lies while the naughty kitty chaotically explores.
