The
Province of Bolzano-Bozen, also referred to as
Alto Adige or
South Tyrol, (also spelled South Tirol), is an autonomous province in northern Italy. It is one of the two provinces that make up the region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, which is itself an autonomous region. The province has an area of 7,400 square kilometres (2,857 sq mi) and a total population of more than 500,000 inhabitants. Its capital is the city of
Bolzano (German:
Bozen; Ladin:
Balsan or
Bulsan). The majority of the population speaks an Austro-Bavarian dialect of German and consider themselves ethnically Tyrolean. About a quarter of the province is Italian-speaking and a small minority speaks Ladin as their mother language. Font:

Poor little tree
ReplyDeleteHas nowhere to go
Still it lights
The barrel, so
Leave the little
Tree alone
It'll petrify
And turn to stone!
Let's just think of this as a sculpture. It can stay there.
ReplyDeleteI took mine down on Saturday. It's time.
ReplyDeletea tree in a barrel... I am sure there is a metaphor in there somewhere!
ReplyDeleteAs long as it is lighted, it can stay until Easter, but then it goes. Karl, you didn't have to scrape the bottom of the barrel for this one.
ReplyDeleteA sweet image. I imagine the colored lights will bring cheer as long as the "tree" is allowed to stay up.
