About a Tree



on a sunny afternoon

we took



one hayride









hiked a big hill






that was muddy and steep






found

two walking sticks






and



of course



the perfect tree



not too tall

or too short



not too skinny

or too fat



and one

that 6 people 

from the same family



could all agree on



which we then cut down

(and by we, i don't mean me)






i had a more



advisory



role






one little man

who might've been a bit



pooped



from the trudge






11 (?) mud-caked shoes






lotsa rope




700 red and white lights



dozens of ornaments

old and new






all add up to 



the agnew family christmas tree
