Differing Perspectives Christmas Tree
Stuck in a box
All year until Christmas
Or, maybe thanksgiving
Some love me more
I'm dragged out from hiding
I'm put together part by part
Eventually springing higher than everyone
I can be fake or real
Next thing you know
I'm all tangled in wires and bright
And to top it off a big bright star
I guess that's my head
All cozy in the corner
Out of everyone's way
I constantly get stared at
Oh, sorry for hiding all of your presents
I'm the only one who gets to see Santa
He stores all of your goodies under me
Yep, I spotted all of you kids waking up at six in the morning
Turn on my lights, Jingle all of my ornaments
Take your time opening your gifts
The more you open means the end of my shift
I don’t mind a picture
Might have to back up to get all of me in the photo
Well, now it's time to shut me down
Take off my lights and decorations
Everyone does it with disappointment
The best season is over
Wrapped in my box to sleep for another year

I really love christmas, its my favorite holiday. I wrote this piece I thought it would be funny to write a piece from the perspective of a christmas tree. Pretty much if the christmas tree had thoughts about what was happening from the "eyes" of a christmas tree.
