to be discarded

two wives, two houses
my three cats now six

we begin anew

a jogger’s footfall
the only sound

a windless day
leaves on a tree shiver
quicksilvery squirrels

of colored lights
dark road home

Xmas 2020

hundred feet tall now
that small little pine
we saved one Christmas

mary and joseph
in the returns line
the scent of myrrh

doe nuzzles
a deer made of lights
and wire

my elderly aunt
at Christmas dinner— proud
of her costco pie

she rubs her face
on the cup of hot coffee
no birds to chase

she bows, blushes
invites us to long for her
the naked maple

a water color
framed in my window
winter’s first rain

how a flame resents
a fluttering moth
never stays the night
