stars
in heaven
"Thousands
of lights were burning
on the green branches,
and gaily-colored pictures,
such as she had seen in the shop-windows,
looked down upon her.
The little maiden stretched out her hands
towards them when-the match went out.
The lights of the Christmas tree
rose higher and higher,
she saw them now as stars in heaven . . ."
- Hans Christian Andersen
