    The Little Christmas Tree
    The little tree looked up and smiled,
    'twas such a happy day.
    Although the roots were severed
    This little tree felt gay.
    He understood what lay ahead,
    He knew what was in store,
    He knew before long he would die..
    His life would be no more.
    This didn't seem to woorry him
    He stood up proud and straight,
    Because he knew his future role
    Was going to make him great.
    For, first of all atop his head
    A brilliant star was placed
    And then a string of colored lights
    Soon made his body graced.
    A little bit of tinsel
    Thrown gently here and there
    Soon gave a gleam of elegance
    To his dis-sheveled hair.
    Then to add a magic touch,
    A child bedecked the tree
    With colored balls of radiance
    For all the world to see.
    The reason for the Glory--
    This tree was to be given
    In loving kindness of our Lord,
    "The Christ Child" sent from heaven.
    A little child has left his gift
    For all the world to see,
    To celebrate a birthday
    With this little Christmas tree.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
