The eleventh day of Christmas
I look at the sad limp tree
And wonder should I take it out
now,- convenient for me
Lights off, branches droop
Reach to the floor now
decorations precariously hang
how do they stay there, how?

But then I start to look anew
And see the story behind
the love that it brought us
And so I change my mind
I'll leave it for a few more days
till the kings have come to call
I'll put the lights on later too
Giving cheer to one and all.

Very nice. I am no good at poetry and a little jealous.
