 Best Christmas Tree

 

My mom used to say,

“This is the best Christmas tree ever!”

So I say it every year to not break tradition,

even though I’ve been putting the same one up

for nearly thirty years.

But every year I add a new ornament.

This year I have ones from

France, England, Wales, Ireland,

Peru, Wisconsin, and Georgia.

“This is the best Christmas tree ever!”
