Christmas Without a Tree

No carolling minstrels No sparkles or tinsel. The Grinch has a lot of good points. Just, “how bloody awful To not have some baubles.” Bah! Scrooge would be proud of this joint. My carols are wails During holiday sales I'll do just fine here without her. My sparkles are tears Every damn year That I tossed out her favorite old Conifer.
