The Christmas Tree
I KNOW you're in the house;I know you are in there;
I feel the green and breathing
All around the air.
I know you're safe and warm;
I know you're very near.
Oh, darling Tree,
Do you hear?
I promised not to look
(The way I did before),
But I can hear you purring —
Purring, through the door:
A green, soft, purring;
Just as if you knew:
Everybody here
Loves you .
Don't feel lonely,
Now you are in-doors. —
Wait for all the shining things
To-morrow, — all yours!
Then you won't know what to think! —
All over Candle-light.
— Oh, darling Tree,
Good-night .
And I love you, I love you;
And everybody, too.
And so does the market-man
That brought us you!
And if you haven't Anything
For me, this year,
— I love you. Good-night!
