Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree, How lovely are thy branches. Yeah right. Look how people change. Every year. No doubt about it. Lets get all excited in November and spend hard earned cash on a real fresh smelling evergreen. Pluck it from the earth. Decorate it with homemade handicrafts and ornaments of love. Oh the tree. Oh the season of love and giving. Then as soon as new year day comes around watch out. The never ending love of the holiday season is quickly thrown out the window. Or maybe it is thrown to the curb. Just like the beloved sacred tree. Ride through any neighborhood and you will see tree after tree on the side of the road. Dead to the family that worshiped it so just a week before. So superficial. So one sided. So fickle. Oh the fickle love of the Americans and their overly commercial holiday season. I am sorry tree. Sorry for the way you are treated. Sorry you fell prey to the fakery and hypocritical Santa Claus and his Bloomingdale elves. So sorry.
