Christmas Countdown Poem 2022: 9. Be Vewy Vewy Quiet I’m Hunting A Furr Twee


Whether it's a thick fir,
Or a spruce or pine,
It's that time of year,
We hunt them down.
***
You've got to sneak up,
No noise in the snow,
Don't want to spook it,
Before you go for the  chop.
***
As it falls to the ground,
The work is half done,
You've got to cart it down,
Back to the front room.
***
On a silent night,
Of hunting trees,
You've got to be stealthy,
To get what you seek.
