How to choose the perfect christmas tree

Å velge det perfekte juletreet er en viktig ting å gjøre før julaften. Selv om mange av dere kanskje allerede har et glitrende og skinnende juletre stående i hjemmet, kommer her et dikt jeg skrev på engelsk:

For the real deal you gotta get out into the forest,

forget about the garden center or your neighbour florist.

Do not forget to take an axe or saw,

and make sure you won’t get into trouble with the law.

Now the hardest part, checking tree after tree,

be aware, it might not be everyones cup of tea.

Here comes a well kept secret, maybe one of the best in this world,                            

the appearance is very important, the tree shouldn’t be dry, too short, too high or curled.

No, it should be perfect with a hint of evergreen scent,

which all makes worth the effort spent.

When hight, volume and color fit,

you have found yourself a christmas hit.

Gather friends and family, leave no one out,

´cause let’s be honest, that’s what christmas is really all about.

Merry christmas and lots of love and joy!
