Too Clever?

A perfectly satisfying poem in its own right, the acrostic element lends is a degree of self-satisfaction at its own cleverness. (Or it could be envy, as I find acrostics devilishly difficult to write!)

Christmas - Acrostic

Candles burn on advent crown,
Holly boughs are cut,
Red ribbon binds the wreath, and
Incense fragrances the air
Spices make the senses tingle
Treats await the patient lip, as
Merriment is close at hand,
Anticipation keenly felt, as the
Special day grows near
