Christmas Lights
A strand of colorful stars. Wrapped around the tree. Bringing a warm glow to the entire room. The sparkling Christmas lights. Evokes feelings like champagne bubbles. A calming presence, almost hypnotizing. Header Photo Credit to Pexels.com https://www.pexels.com/photo/close-up-photo-of-christmas-lights-1721263/
