A Chritsmas Tradition Poem by Jim Yerman

Yesterday, as is our tradition,
We put up our Christmas tree.

And each decoration and ornament we hung
brought back a memory.

For a few hours, with Christmas music in the background,
We hung those onraments...with smiles on our faces...

Remembering our children...our grandchildren...friends...family..
people...animals and places.

It's a day I look forward to each year....
trimming that Frasier Fir tree

And enjoying the first present of Christmas...
unwrapping memories.
