The little Christmas tree

little christmas tree - TheFarmersInTheDell.com

Every year, around the middle of December, in a snow covered field along a quiet country road, a little Christmas tree decorated with a tin foil star and a lone red ornament appears.  At sunset, a solar battery powers a single strand of white Christmas lights that shine brightly in the darkness of the surrounding woods.  Nobody seems to know the mysterious tree owner and most people around here like it that way.  This simple act of holiday spirit spreads Christmas joy and magic to all who pass by the little tree.

Merry Christmas to all.  Peace on earth.  Good will toward men.

And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.  Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.

Roald Dahl
