Merry Christmas
and unhurried feast days with plenty of contemplativeness
and 'Geheichnis', good Talks and very nice being together
during all of the Holy Days

Our little tree

Till the last minute
In search
For the little Christmas tree
At first
Nothing decent found!
But not sworn about it yet
And simply continued to look.
Then suddenly right in the corner
Becoming aware of one, which
Seemed to be there totally lost
Looking sadly in front of itself
Seeming to be alone and without  any courage
Not even thinking,
That one would become aware of it.

We took it with us
And draped it nice
With Christmas tree balls and tinsel
And candles too
And it has been glaring bright
For ev’rybodies delight
For the holy day of Christ’s birth
And it made us feeling happy
So lovely as it has been staying there
That all felt very pleaed about it
Till far over New Years Eve
Straight into the fresh New Year
We never had a comparable tree
In all the years before.
