Caribbean morning

Intense turquoise, the
water is a wake-up call
to swim, sun, sail, dream.

Dichotomy

She PhotoShops her
self covered with blood spatters
loves puppies, is sweet.

Being a silly girl

An affectation,
but it’s cute, and she is for
given many sins.

Christmas triage

Not enough time for
cookies, cards, decorating.
Which one do I skip?

A Christmas story

If I could shoot my
eye out with that thing, I’d just
sit and watch TV.

Holiday spirit

Like catching snowflakes,
this melts quickly from the heat
of a stressful month.

Clean sweep

My spare bedroom holds
many possibilities
under all that junk.

Oh Christmas tree

We bring it home, put
it on life support so we
can hang ornaments.

Christmas lights

Like flickering tongues
of flame in green…blue…red. Just
plug in and enjoy.

Picking Christmas trees

Like speed dating, if
they make a good impression,
they come home with us.
