THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Pm found in homes of wealth and ease
With costly ornaments arranged,
And with my many colored bulbs
My dazzling beauty is displayed.
Pm found in homes of poverty,
Where ornaments are few and worn;
Where strings of popcorn oft are used
MY scanty branches to adorn.
In churches I am also found;
And eagerly the children meet,
To wait till Santa calls their name
And gives to them a gift or treat.
Sometimes I'm very, very small,
And stand beside bed of pain;
To cheer some little boy or girl
Until they're we'll and strong again.
I'm found upon the courthouse lawn,
For rich and poor alike to share,
And sweet voiced choirs gather near
To sing their Christmas carols there.
So, when I leave my forest home,
I know not where I may abide;
But let me be where'er I will
I shed joy through the Christmastide

whether the style is suitable to ones personality
