April 15, Acrostic- Christmas trees on the side of the road

On Christmas Eve you'll never find
Hearts as full or mind as kind
Cause Christmas season is full of cheer
Hardly carried throughout the year, we
Raise a tree as we lift our standards
In how we share what now seem grandeurs
Smiles here and a held door there
Tell a sour soul you care, and
Melt the rest of frozen year attitudes
Ardently and without any platitudes
So often ignored in lessons and classrooms
Taught by deed as Christmas trees loom
Rectifying hope with shining stars
Each wrapped carefully or sealed in jars
Every time the tree is thrown, with the
Spirit of Christmas onto the lawn.

Another take on it:

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree,
How lovely are your branches!
Cut down with axe
Hung from the car
Ropes never lax,
It's not too far,
So Christmas tree, so Christmas
Tree, how strangled are your branches?
More burning lights,
And tacky balls,
Secure hooks that bite, and
Twist so nothing falls,
Ruined Christmas tree, ruined Christmas tree
End on the curb with
Empty branches.






Had to stop, just not gettin anything yet, have the idea though just have to get the pace
