ice ice baby
on Xmas eve i noticed a tree in a unit 2 doors from mine.
someone had hung crystals, silver ribbons, mirror balls, angels,
gold, red, and silver ornaments on a dead leafless gumtree.
there was an amber light shooting up from below that tree.
and they created the most beautiful and arresting sight.
ive never been much for Xmas,
but this act of beauty delighted me.
it inspired me to make pretty on things.
come to think of it, how cute was that one person
who first decided to decorate a tree so many many years ago.
now many trees have been decorated and loved
celebrating the beauty that he/she first inspired.
i wonder if we all can have that opportunity.
to at least for once, be that cool first person who
decorates trees. or cupcakes. or sounds.
and make the already beautiful world an evenmore.
