Annual reminder to water your Christmas tree poems …

This poem is written in the shape of a Christmas tree (well, most of it is) …

Needles

I
wrote
a poem
in the shape
of a Christmas
tree but then forgot
to water it and only a few
days
later

[but the words beyond this point are scattered around the bottom of the page, like needles which have fallen from a Xmas tree)

there
were
words
all
over
the
carpet
