“O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum

 

“O   Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum”

My Grandmother  always sang this song in German when she
was in the Christmas Spirit,
Which didn’t always have to be at Christmas.

So this time of year,  I find myself humming

 this song

(Humming since I can’t carry a tune 

and don’t know the words, especially

Not in German.)
With this song in my head, our 

tannenbaum is decorated.

The ornaments are old.  The are not expensive, or shiny or precious antiques.  They are nicked, worn and loved.

Victorian  Carolers &  Skaters,

Sleighs,

Horse  drawn Vehicles, an Auto
(all of which have working wheels).

A selection of little Shops and

Red and Green Books with actual pages.

Topped off with a Big,  Red  Bow

Crowded around  is a little rocking chair, which has rocked many miles, but now holds a teddy bear.

And a sleigh with more bears.

These timeless little treasures, loved by my family,  work well together, 

especially  since the tree  is near my 

Antique  Grand Piano.

Reflected in the Armoire

With lights,

 Or  without…

My heart sings  “O Tannnenbaum”

Until next time, Honey
