Samuel Williams has brought the worlds of nature and unavoidable human advancement into clear and entertaining focus in this heartwarming story. In it, he rhetorically poses the question to his readers, what stories would this tree share with its listeners if it could speak to them? With years and years of wisdom and experience, what unspoken and little-known bits of information would trees share? The tree in this story realizes it is about to be removed from the spot where it has stood since it was a mere seedling. Its removal is necessary in order for "progress" to take place. But the memories and stories the tree shares right before it is cut down will absolutely warm your heart to its melting point.

Christmas is unavoidable. But if it is going to happen for us, we need to take time. We need to slow down and do something out of the ordinary, something that has to do with the spiritual meaning of the feast and the season. Reading the Christmas poems of Seeing Haloes is one way of doing this. John Shea hopes that each poem strikes a chord and brings us into memories we may have forgotten and present experiences we may have overlooked. When this happens, the Spirit arrives to illumine our minds, inspire our wills, and gladden our hearts. Christmas happens.
