Poem My Christmas Tree. (in the attic)
My Christmas Tree. (in the Attic)
Well I’ve tried my luck,
the tree is up
It took a while you see,
I had so many bags to find,
that one that had the tree.
Its not just pull it out the box
And place it on a stand
There just seem to be things not here
And just not to hand
In a bag there was the tinsel
A mess when pulled out of the bag
But now it’s on the Christmas tree
It doesn’t look that bad
The lights on next, you should have a test
But they all said, “OH NO”,
But I’m glad I did, and plugged it in
Because there was no show.
Now spending time to find the bulb
The one that stop the switch on
To find my wife had put the wrong plug in
And switched the fish tank and the electric kettle?
Well after I found the error of the plug
And plugged the right one in
The twinkling lights of those Christmas light
Made all the kids cheeks glow
Well by now I had enough, this was I hope a one off
And ready to watch the Telly
Oh no she said you can make a start
on all the Christmas decorations.
I’ve got an idea, I said
Lets let the kids have a go, after all they are tall enough
to reach the side windows and all the walls.
The kids said can we, PLEASE…., OH let us have a go,
Come on love, its only Christmas, once a year.
