Notes About The Poem

Written, December 8, 2025
For The Contest, “A Trois-par-Huit for December”
Sponsor, Andrea Dietrich

Christmas Trees

They stand tall
with a delicate sprawl 
limbs lifted gently toward the sky

carried home and adorned by hand to beautify
with special ornaments that shine and fortify
the feeling that Christmas guarantees-

a time to love and please-
Christmas Trees.
