Tree Lighting

I joined the crowd last night to watch

The local Christmas tree

As it officially got lit,

A lovely sight to see.

 

Although it’s not my holiday,

The festiveness appealed

And as the neighbors gathered ‘round,

That spirit was revealed.

 

A choir was accompanied

By instruments of brass

And caroled with enthusiasm

No one could surpass.

 

The park was filled with families,

Hot chocolate in the air,

And in the moonlight, everyone

Was happy to be there.
