Oh, stop catastrophizing. It’s only December 20th. Real Men
don’t think “last-minute shopping” or “last-minute preparations”
until about lunchtime on December 24th.
Christmas Eve–
the hum of power lines
just pass the mall
New Resonance 3; beyond spring rain
Christmas eve
the carousel animals
all motionless
Christmas eve
in the courtyard below
a flutter of wings
“santaDudeNeg”
Christmas eve-
the row of cut trees
no one took home
“Christmas eve/trees”: “Modern Haiku” XXIX:2 (Summer 1998)
“Christmas eve/carousel” Modern Haiku XXIX: 2 (Summer 1998)
“Christmas eve/courtyard” – “Can Collector’s Red Socks” (2003)
Christmas eve
in her pajamas all day
the youngest one
Christmas morning
a yellow ribbon
of sun
The Heron’s Nest (Dec. 2003)
“NoSantaGs”
p.s. Well, no, I didn’t quite get all those cards mailed out yesterday.
My faith in the USPS is almost total.
red envelopes
the sound
of children’s laughter
winter evening
a cafeteria tray
at the end of the slope
