Father Out Of Time And Other Stories

One Christmas Wish

Christmas tree
O Christmas tree, o the dim lights.
Christmas tree
with your tear shaped ornament.
Can you grant me, one final wish.
That you'll be with me as I sleep.
Christmas tree.

The rain falling
overhead, kisses my skin.
A tingling touch.

It was you oh Christmas tree,
with your tear shaped ornaments,
and your mocking gaze, all night long,
that comforted me tonight.
May you also have a goodnight too.
With your stockings of charcoal,
and some vague hope of candy within.

Christmas tree
O Christmas tree, o the dim lights.
Christmas tree
with your tear shaped ornament.
Can you grant me, one final wish.
That you'll be with me as I sleep.
Christmas tree.

You have been a
great friend to me.
Now I wish you adieu.
As I fade tonight.
