#Christmas
Its funny really
the people have gone crazy
leading up to this point
running around for gifts and presents
those extra special things for the kids to unwrap
left under the tree
Mountains of Food, prepared for the feast
and landed on a fancy table around the beast
visits from family few days after that
and late christmas mail dropping on the mat
as twinkling lights on the tree they go by
there’s no one outside, and you wonder why
could it be the arrival of the cold wind that does blow
or perhaps more the work, of hail, frost and snow?
