These humans are kind,
they’ve brought in a tree.
I know they can’t climb,
so it must be for me.

It stands in a pot
of earth mixed with clay,
yet when I start digging,
they chase me away!

They’ve hung shiny streamers
from each prickly branch.
They’ll make a fine plaything,
when I get the chance.

They’re wrapping their presents,
the paper is nice.
The contents are strange though,
no birds, fish or mice.

I played with the streamers
and a round shiny ball;
then to my horror,
the tree starts to fall!
The humans are angry,
they put me outside.
What to do next...
I can’t yet decide.

Something is cooking,
what a wonderful smell!
But will they share it?
You never can tell.

I jump on the counter,
and sniff at the plate.
The humans then move it;
alas, I’m too late!

I’m tired of Christmas,
it’s no fun, I say.
They have all these things
but they won’t let me play.

Christmas morning is here.
Oh, what a great time.
I’ve a new catnip mouse
and the turkey’s divine!
