I can't give up my Christmas tree.
Its branches hold onto memories for me!
Yes, yes, I know. Most people see
A 60-inch imposter whose outfit’s cheap.
But the thing is, people I love love to be
Met with a twinking tree-shaped key
To shared smiles and tears. Each
Funky star and sticky ball, you see,
One or more of us gave. Often lovingly
Made, going wild with glitter. . .wheeee!
Turns back the clock for us, so please
No more talk of lockstepping a-b-c,
Down-with-tree. Too beautiful, too...'chi?'
Look, we’re just going to have to agree
This nut has a white-lighted Valentine tree.
"Use year-round. No assembly, no fee.”
if only people left up their Christmas decorations, lights and trees it would be a constnat reminder that Christmas is not just a day or a season, but it is an everyday celebration of our Lord Jesus. Whether he was born on December 25 or not, it is still a remembrance of His birth and how he came to fulfill the prohpecy and forgive us of our sins. Thank you Pea for sharing.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie
boy i can relate phyliss...it works just as well for gumdrops and colored eggs...shamrocks...flags and so on.
i did this one year only the tree was real minus its long shed needles (we caalled it oour stick tree)the kids loved it and didn't consider it any crazier than what the 'norm' was around our house. you've inspired me to think about again...for the grandkidoodles...hmmm
Yes the decoration trinkets are so much fun, truly a year round celebration. You are on to something here, why limit the tree to February? You could be famous here! Contact Whammo immediately. Frisbees are passe' "Pea" Green trees are in. Politically correct family year round fun. I'll be first in line. Five cents please. Patrick
Wonderful! I mean the fact that you have the tree still for Valentine Day. I love to see them.
How about Easter? Do you adorn it with Easter eggs? I've seen it done gorgeously.
Lucky Pea, to have a tree!
Love,
Connie
Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
A people’s heart can be found in their poetic words. In history men and women have stood firmly upon their soapboxes and street corners, rallying the deepest beliefs of people to rise up and be heard. The poetrypages.com has offered that voice a new

Christmas in July
fireworks and skyrockets
and a tree wild with glitter
the light of a funky star
and a battleworn flag on top
