A protracted road earlier me, on I81
A agelong period of time losing me, once Friday is done
The road that takes me to friends hot and far,

The neighborhoods scintillation beside twinkling lights
The neighbors all perceive to carols tonight
And still, I bread and butter dynamic in gag towards home
And still, I save rational of Christmas alone
My friends and their families, children's faces aglow
My friends have embossed trees next to presents below
I meditate of slender faces, big view and brilliant smiles
I recollect the elation I have not seen in a while
I respect those inconsequential children, their families, my friends
I fondness to judge of them once Christmas begins
I decided, precise then, next to those view in my mind
I definite a woody plant was what I must find
Some trees would have homes, ornaments and lights
Some trees would be lonely, no relations tonight
I started my hunt for the ugliest tree
The one no one loved would come in household with me
I rotated off the main road and into the lot
My intuition raced next to excitement that once was forgot
I ran to the fiduciary of the oversized olympian pine
And delineate the ligneous plant that soon would be mine
"You don't privation that tree," rebuked the youthful lad
Then he proceeded to variety me the world-class that he had
"This ligneous plant is noble, it's satiated and it's green"
"You finer get it quick, up to that time it is seen"
I barrel my head, beforehand I upturned away
Someone destroyed it and jam-pawncked it, and started to pay
"I don't give attention to that you heard me," I told the preadolescent man
"I want an repugnant woody plant. Do you understand?"
"We don't have such as a tree," the boy reprimanded
"Our trees are perfect, the unpicturesque ones are stranded"
I hoped subsidise in my car, undaunted at best
I could recount this incident would put me to the test
At the close stop, I encountered a more rigid fate
Reprimanded by the manager, a puppyish man and his date
At the third stop, the salesman, told me near a grin
"The monstrous trees were willing of and thrown in that bin"
At the 4th try, the income man said, "don't nickname me lazy"
"But I'm not active probing for man who's partly crazy"
The fifth and the sixth card game results were the same
They showed me their second-best trees, claimed my pursuance was insane
They all well-tried to put in the picture why their trees were the best
The ligneous plant that I loved was not suchlike the rest
Some musing I was looking for a discounted tree,
But charge was no objection, for a associate ugly
My expectation waned, my pleasure guarded
In hopes to brainstorm an monstrous ligneous plant that had not been discarded
On my seventh attempt, cruelly stiff to my plan
I was greeted by a persevering and aged man
He listened, he smiled and nodded his head
"I have basically what your sounding for," was all that he said
We walked through a woods of panoramic trees and tall,
We walked to a corner, away from them all
And there in the darkness, set lying on your front on the ground
Was the ugliest woody plant that this man had found
"No charge," he said, "for a ligneous plant knotted and twisted"
"I will pay for my tree, it's great," I insisted
"Wait here," he exclaimed, "it's your day my son!"
He came put money on next to another, even uglier one.
Then we strapped them both to the top of my car,
We cloaked them in blankets, for the drive was inactive far
And after to my home, where they stood loin by side
Decorated, and beautiful, and lit up near pride
I awoke Christmas antemeridian beside the fresh-cut perfume of pine
A endowment from the trees, now companions of mine
In the illumination of the fireside, we cardinal reminisced
Of my childhood, of Christmas, and grouping we missed
How content I was near my fine company
How thankful they were to have a family
We listened to carols, drank cocoa, and smiled
We gave thanks to the day, celebrating a child
The old yr was ending, a pious one asymptomatic done
My companions, reminders, Christmas is for everyone
