Wonderful poem with so many sentiments. I liked how you composed this poem. It is easy to follow and reliable to most, if not all, readers. The picture is precious. Thank you for sharing.

A big Congratulations on your
competition win! I love this
Christmas poem and the
twist at the end. You're younger
than me, I was 16 in 1973.
Very charming photo. Have a
very creative weekend. All
the best to you and yours. ~

Thank you Regina. It is actually my daughter who is younger than you. I told the story through her eyes. I'm the mom who took the picture. I especially appreciate this review because it gives me the coveted 26 reviews that should give this another status.

Aww, this is so cute. I love that the picture has a loving memory behind it and that it also says - a woman is quite capable of cutting down a Christmas tree, thank you very much. Brilliant. Thank you for sharing and best of luck in the competition.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
I especially love the alliterations and rhymes of the first two lines - it really gets the words rolling off the tongue! Such a nice flow to the words, and you've told us a story of a family going to cut their tree down each Christmas, and doing what's necessary to make sure it's a pleasant experience for all:-)
Nicely done. Good luck with this contest.

Thank you so much Pam. I really appreciate the review and nice comments. I miss those days when we cut down our own Christmas tree.

So, that picture is you and your dad? I really loved the poem. It told the picture well. I wished I had known about this contest. I have a whole drawer full of black-and-white memories.

Thank you so much for the review and comment. Actually the picture is my husband and daughter. I wrote the poem as seen through her eyes. I took the photo.
Comment from Rosemary Everson1
What a wonderful memory as a child. Sometimes to walk where there is picky twigs or even sandburs, makes walking difficult. To get a ride on top of daddy's shoulders solves the problem.

Thank you so much Rosemary. I really appreciate the review and comments.
Comment from Brett Matthew West
Sure walking in the Christmas tree lot felt much better than struggling through those briars did.
Nothing like the fresh pine aroma, or the fun, of cutting down your own Christmas tree.
Strong rhymes throughout.

Very reminiscent of the time past. The poem has a good rhyme and has a light and joyous feel.
Very well written. There's nothing more warming than good memories!!

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a sweet entry in the memory contest. The text is a great size. The message is clearly stated and a relatable one. Many of us remember searching in the woods for Christmas trees that were mostly cedar trees. The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

That's cute and you told the whole story well even with dialogue from your little self with your father in verse form. I'm glad that Christmas tree lot was free from briars! Best wishes in the contest!
