Missed the bus
Now she has time to
blow dry her hair while I rub
away sleep, then drive.
Paperless Christmas
Being green we use
fabric bags old boxes to
wrap gifts. No trees die.
Abandoned haiku blog
My door open, but
the rooms are empty, thoughts like
forgotten relics.
Unemployed Christmas
Can days be merry
and bright? Jobs – like ornaments –
fragile, out of reach.
Honey, I’m home!
Has it really been
a month since I told you all
about my day, dear?
Rainy days
Earthworms emerge, splayed
across sidewalks, tender skin
snags on rough concrete.
Laptop
An adult blankie.
To take one from its owner
will make grown men cry.
Back pain
Hunched and hobbling I
move as if years older, a
taste of what’s to come.
Disorganized
Incrementally
I clean unearthing a clear
space on the table.
