As he looked all around for something to burn. What he saw made him grumble, his anger grew higher, For there wasn't a thing that would start a good fire. No door had been blocked by the big Christmas tree; It stood in the corner, leaving passageways free. The lights that glowed brightly for Betty and Tim Had been hung with precaution so none touched a limb All wiring was new, not a break could be seen. And wet sand at its base kept the tree nice and green. The tree had been trimmed by a mother insistent That die ornaments used be fire resistant And mother had known the things to avoid. Lake cotton and paper and plain celluloid. Rock wool, metal icicles, and trinkets of glass Gave life to die tree; it really had class. And would you believe it right next to the tree Was a suitable box for holding debris! A place to throw wrappings of paper and string From all of the gifts that Santa might bring. The ugly galoot was so mad he could bust As he climbed up the chimney in utter disgust For the folks in this home had paid close attention.
