Fa La La La La!

Gold finches light up
the chokecherry tree’s crown like
yellow Christmas bulbs.

Oh! Christmas Tree

Little pine tree from
last December, standing on
deck–still going strong!

My wish for all of you is
The joy of Christmas.

n.b. However you celebrate, or whatever your beliefs, I sincerely hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

Christmas Rush

Buzzing round today;
my dead father would have said,
“like a blue-arsed fly”.

Signs I Should Not Go Christmas Shopping

-no deodorant
-shopping bags in other car
-gears on mine are stuffed

-can’t find my ear-muffs
-sleet is sheeting down-it’s wet!
-I hate that Walmart

-wonky shopping carts
-tree still wants decorating
-there’s three more days yet.
