Constance La France Poet Rhyme

O, Christmas Tree

 
Dad went to the woods to cut down a Christmas tree,
but it did not fit in the house any which way you see;
so, he cut off the sides and cut off the top_
that year we had a square Christmas tree, chop chop !

L Milton Hankins December 23, 2021 at 7:19 PM So clever, Constance! And, I can recall my dad cutting the bottom off of the tree and trying to get it to stand straight in the tree stand. It never looked quite as good as it did in the woodland. Ah! Christmas memories are wonderful, aren't they? Great writing!
