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

public library
giving away children’s books
gifts under the tree
2351
children frantic
gingerbread cookies gone
grandpa shrugs
2340
a ring of children
muting and unmuting
a-caroling they go
2324
stars bloom in trees
I put my glasses on
Christmas lights

an Xmas present
coffee brewed in civet poop
save for visitors

doors locked christmas day
the town’s only bagel shop
google lied to me
2679
peace on this planet
good will among all
even crows dream so

mary and joseph
standing in the returns line
didn’t like the myrrh
2672
draped in lights
tinsel and glitter
laughing buddha
2669
even gargoyles
dress up as elves and santas
canes of rock candy
2668
Christmas dinner plan
redcaps eat in the garage
blues in the basement
2667
baby gnaws a mouse
spills coffee, chews power cords
a merry Christmas
2658
the cold and darkness
a lantern in the forest
a brilliant Christmas
2648r
doe nuzzles
a deer made of wires
and lights

2647r
groves of douglas fir
spring up every other block
stacks of wood crosses
2643
tiny galaxies
scattered in the bushes
santas on rooftops
2599
day after Christmas
chasing the new bike downhill
his young son on it
2252
weeks after Christmas
leftovers stacked in the fridge
raccoons won’t touch them
