New Year's Tree
This year's holiday decoration idea combines the best of a classic season icon; prep'ed and readied to shepard in the new year.(AKA: Anti-gravity tree stand part 2).
Now for a bit of traditional glee, if you please.
A nut laidiened poem, flavored with holiday cheese....
Bring me a fibbing pudding and I'll show you a sight.
Of a warm -ible whimsy on a cold winter night.
Though a mite bit of deception, those with belief,
might find a nugget of use in this fable's stepped sheaf.
The tree, like the year, is heavy and full
The challenge as always is how to draw out their dwell
but help the season reset the year's glass with a heave,
and all will be well under the new year tree's eaves.
The shape of the tree is like the shape of the glass
and the tree, like the year, is heavy and full to the last
but, as the year's sand falls to a stop
This inspired tree, brings a new year to the top.
In the end you will see it's more a beginning anew
as a tree is transformed into a Year Again Yew.

Loop a steel tether cable over the hook.
