Looking For Christmas Tree

looking for the christmas tree  in the attic
i found the old suitcase ancient i should say 
in it
1 torn underwear with more holes than fabric
2 pairs of unmatched socks not red or white
3 shirts i cant get into anymore
4 strings of guitar two missing
5 letters of teen age infatuation or ardent love 
they moved me to tears
