Plumb Christmas Tree, Plumb Christmas Tree,
How level are your branches!
Plumb Christmas Tree, Plumb Christmas Tree,
How level are your branches!
Plumb Christmas Tree, Plumb Christmas Tree,
Once witnessing a quarter stone,
Now drying up in my living room;
Plumb Christmas Tree, Plumb Christmas Tree,
How level are your branches!
'Tis not alone in surveyor's search,
Other witnesses like maple and birch;
It marks the spot for us to find,
For us to measure with others in kind;
Hand-written field notes tell us its distance,
Though with cursive writing in this instance,
Of holy stone buried low in ground,
The pin finder without a sound.
That is me every year!?ÿ How does the non-surveyor get the tree straight??ÿ Come to think of it, how does one get by without the wedges, lath and all the stuff we find a use for around the house?
