Lights on the weeping cherry tree

We planted an ornamental weeping cherry tree several years ago and whilst it loses its leaves in winter, it excels the rest of the year particularly in spring when it is covered in pink/white blossom. It is beautiful and much admired by neighbours and visitors. For the last few years we have crowned our tree with Xmas lights over the Xmas period which lights up our small plot in our vast world. Perhaps this is philosophical. God weeping at the state of our world and thereby sending Jesus as the light. Cherry trees mean "the ripening of friendship." Perhaps this is symbolic since Jesus was a friend to everyone. Peace and joy be with you.
